Mastering Multiple Trades with Jiu-Jitsu Blackbelt Matthew Pasquale
Manage episode 350373263 series 3369714
Sculpting your body—or even just taking care of it—is an art form these days. Today’s creator is Matthew Pasquale, a man with a black belt in jujitsu, a gym owner, and a personal trainer… who also happens to have been in a band with Nelson when they were at school together!
This episode of Cast of Creators is bursting at the seams with beautiful backstories as we learn things about Casie that not even Nelson knew! It turns out that chatting martial arts brings out the badass in us.
And in terms of chatting fitness regimes and morning routines, this is as inspirational and down-to-earth as it gets. It’s super relatable and you’re going to want to listen, if only to learn that we all need to take Casie way more seriously before messing with her!
"Training is a stimulus, but if that stimulus doesn’t do anything or if you don’t take in the necessary calories and do the necessary things to grow from that stimulus, nothing will happen.”
