I had a goal this year to get into the best shape of my life by my 40th birthday. And I'm proud to say that on May 19, I accomplished it! I did this for two reasons... One, I've been working out since I was 15 years old, but I wanted to see what would be possible if we really dialed in the diet and the workouts. And secondly, my daughter was going to be born around my 40th birthday so I wanted to redefine what it meant to have a dad bod. I've received A LOT of messages and emails asking what my diet looked like or what my workout plan looked like -- and we'll get into all of the nitty-gritty details during this episode, but I started at 202 and over the course of these 90 days I ended at 177 -- and I did it with the help of a world-renowned nutritionist and fitness coach AJ Simms (@cementfactory) who has trained wrestling stars like Bobby Lashley, LA Knight, EC3, Johnny Gargano, Apollo Crews and he's the guy who got Tommaso Ciampa looking like a beast recently. I did this all naturally -- although hey, I appreciate all of the comments from people accusing me of taking PEDs or doing TRT. That is honestly the best possible compliment for you to think this kind of result isn't possible without drugs. Hilarious! I hope you enjoy this episode with the one and only AJ Simms!

This will be a monthly episode so if you have a question that you'd like answered in the January edition, just send it with the hashtag #AskCVV. Here is a look at the questions from this month: What's the best piece of advice you've gotten throughout your entrepreneurial journey? (Either from a guest, mentor, or other elsewhere) Besides John Cena and The Rock, who’s your most favorite person you’ve interviewed? What is one part of your morning routine you can’t live without? Sometimes I get really nervous before interviews to the point I have to cancel them. Any advice on this subject? Would you ever consider writing a book? What’s your advice on the next step after graduating from university? What is your guilty pleasure song? What is your favorite Movie of 2022? How do you approach an interview where you don’t care about the subject? Do you have any advice for growing or starting a YouTube channel or podcast venture? How are you feeling since you are about to be a father?

Today's episode is just me and you talking about my favorite topic of all time: passion. A question that I like to ask when I first meet someone is: "what juices you?" "what drives you?" "what EXCITES you?". I think their answer says a lot about a person. What are you passionate about? Passion is the secret sauce of life. Sprinkle some passion on anything and BAM it immediately gets taken to the next level. If you're passionate about your job, all of a sudden it doesn't feel so much like a job anymore. Throw some passion into a relationship, especially one that may have plateaued.... and oh man, you better hang on if you know what I mean. Starting today, start putting some of that secret sauce on your life! If you enjoyed this episode, could I ask you to please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcast/iTunes?

Donovan McNabb played 13 years in the NFL and was the first NFL quarterback ever to throw for more than 30 touchdowns and fewer than 10 interceptions in a season. He's best known for his time with the Philadelphia Eagles where he was a 6-time Pro Bowler, but he also played for the Washington Redskins and the Minnesota Vikings. We talk about how he started to make the transition to life after football after just a few seasons in the league. He's 43 years old now and we talk about the other quarterbacks in their 40s who are still playing; Tom Brady and Drew Brees. He also gets into the life lessons that football taught him that we can all apply to our lives, whether you're an athlete or not. I'm sure you will enjoy this insightful conversation as much as I did!
