145) Gary McGowan - How To Live An Anti-Fragile & Good Life
from CamBro Conversations · host Colin Campbell
Today’s conversation is with Gary McGowan also known as Skinny Gaz. Gary McGowan is a 27-year old personal trainer, the co-owner of Triage Method, and a current medical student. With various practical qualifications in personal training, nutrition and strength & conditioning, as well as a BSc in Physiotherapy, Gary is interested in how individuals can live their lives in the most healthful way possible. Beyond exercise, nutrition, and the behaviours we typically associate with "health", he also has a keen interest in philosophy and psychology as it relates to the pursuit of a good life. Given Gary wears a number of different hats, I ask about his identify and how he views himself. This is of particular interest given his recent hamstring injury which impacted his ability to train. Expect to learn much more about the different aspects of identify, how our mindset, self talk, upbringing and sources we consume can shape how we view ourselves. I mentioned Gary has a keen interest in philosophy and psychology which leads to us discussing what an anti-fragile and good life looks like. Within this you’ll hear about coaching, Nasim Taleb, Jordan Peterson, resilience, being happy, and even jump style dance. Lastly, as Gary is such a busy individual we touch on productivity, work ethic, morals, self improvement, as well as fatphobic behaviours, fit shaming and virtue signalling. Today's podcast is supported by Crypto Glasgow. Founders Donald and Dec have appeared three time on the podcast sharing the principles behind the best performing investment asset of the last 12 months and the inner workings of the Crypto currency market.
