In episode 68, I speak with Personal Trainer, Nutritionist, owner of Intelligent Training Systems and great mate, Perry Venakis. What a background. From mechanic, to farmer, to marshal arts, to PT, to bodybuilding, and now nutritionist who is helping people eat in a way that will lead them to optimal wellbeing. His message is all about keeping things simple, and he says, 'with simplicity there is so much complexity.' Trust me, this is an entertaining, powerfully simple and inspiring podcast you do not want to miss.
I am blessed to have known Perry Venakis for well over 20 years, so far. When we met, he was just starting his personal training journey after a very interesting background as a mechanic, a farmer and then with a passion to help people with their health and well being. He turned his knowledge and experience to help body builders get positive results in a much more healthy and natural way, and had great success with many people he worked with.
His journey led him to an intense interest in the role that nutrition played in body building, but also how it impacted every person and in every area of life. Perry works with many people to help them live optimal lives through eating simply, naturally and nutritionally to help them get results that seem to very complex. This interest led him, at the age of 55, to study a Masters degree in nutrition and then go on to start the Australia Academy of Raw Nutrition.
Perry and I chat about some simple but powerful concepts that will transform your eating habits and your life, if you take them on board and take action. He is a knowledgeable, passionate and entertaining man who I loved talking to. I know you will get a lot from this podcast, so please enjoy.
