Fit Nerd is where faith, fitness, and science collide. We geek out on genetics, health, and training — all while keeping Christ at the center. From nutrition and hormones to joyful movement and real-life faith, you’ll discover how to work with the body God designed so you can feel strong, energized, and fearfully fit. I like to explore the current trends- food, exercise, and lifestyle- and discuss who that trend will benefit and why.

Peptides are everywhere right now — from athletes and biohackers to the friend who suddenly looks 12 years younger and won’t tell you why. But what’s the real story? In this episode, we dive deep into the tiny molecules that send BIG messages inside your body.
We break down the good, the bad, and the straight-up wild science behind peptides like BPC-157, CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, GHK-Cu, and of course… GLP-1 (Semaglutide & Tirzepatide).
You’ll learn:
✨ How peptides actually work
✨ Why they help healing, inflammation, fat loss & aging
✨ The risks no one talks about
✨ Why quality matters
✨ How GLP-1 reduces inflammation
✨ And how all of this points back to the God who designed our bodies with unbelievable precision
Get ready for a deep dive that’s nerdy, fun, faith-rooted, and full of the info you wish someone had told you sooner.
