Josh Taylor — Juggling Life & Fitness As You Get Older & Priorities Change | MTFP Ep.66

Josh is a fellow Silly Goose from London that I met on Instagram a few weeks ago when he shared my work. He followed a lot of the same people I followed, believed in similar ideas, and he's *almost* as good looking as I am, so I decided to connect with him. Despite his aesthetic shortcomings, we had a great conversation about how our perspective on fitness has evolved as we've gotten older. Starting out as a boxer for about 10 years, Josh fell in love with weights and eventually became a PT at a local gym. That evolved into competing in physique competitions and getting ridiculously shredded on stage. As for schooling, he also never went to university because he didn't exactly excel in academics in his younger years, as he mentioned he would constantly "bunk" class (British slang for "skipping") or get in fights. That is, until recently, when his thirst for knowledge, fear of imposter syndrome, and yearning to become a better fitness coach drove him to pursue a degree in biochemistry. His priorities have changed over the years, but—like you and me—fitness remains the bedrock of it all, so it was cool to hear how he's managed things along the way. It could've been the alcohol talking, but we had a great chat and hit it off like a couple of lads. We hope you enjoy it, too.
