Bryce Lewis is a competitive, drug-free elite powerlifter in the 83-105kg weight classes. He holds records in both the USA Powerlifting federation (USAPL) and International Powerlifting Federation (IPF), and strives to promote the comprehension and love of powerlifting training throughout the world. Through his success as an elite lifter, Bryce’s dream is to pass on his knowledge and skills through The Strength Athlete (TSA) powerlifting coaching services online in addition to his YouTube Channel and Facebook fan page. By these efforts, Bryce hopes to help raw, drug-free powerlifting gain more prominence and acceptance internationally.
Under 3D Muscle Journey (3DMJ) Coach, Eric Helms, Bryce was introduced to powerlifting, following a collegiate and high school passion for volleyball and a five year period competing in natural bodybuilding. He immediately fell in love with the newfound sport. Lifting heavy was always fun, but powerlifting allowed him to express his desires for competition, application of advanced strength training techniques, and achievements through measured progress. Even now, Bryce remains an integral part of Team 3DMJ and has adapted their principles of dedication, desire, and discipline as his own. In addition to training services, Eric also mentors Bryce through an ongoing 3DMJ internship.
In addition to his successful career as an athlete, Bryce has always strived for academic and intellectual attainment. He graduated from University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2010 with a Bachelors of Arts degree in Philosophy. Currently, he plans to continue coaching athletes from around the world through TSA, and help more athletes develop the tools for success. Bryce passionately advocates for the application and love of the sciences, evidence-based philosophies, and skepticism of pseudoscience. In his spare time, he explores a variety of art forms from pencil and pen drawings to graphic design to culinary arts in the kitchen.
Bryce resides in Fort Collins, Colorado with his chocolate labrador, Sequoia. After winning USAPL Raw Nationals two years in a row, Bryce heads to IPF World Championships in Calgary, Canada in 2018.

Just quickly, before we begin - I have 3 spots that have opened up for online coaching, and I thought I would offer them to podcast listeners first, as - let’s face it - you guys are awesome. If you’re maybe a bit confused as to how to implement some of the training or nutrition principles we’ve discussed on here, or maybe you’re a bit overwhelmed by all the information out there and you’re struggling to find a way of training that you’re truly happy with, I’m here to help. My coaching is pretty simple - together, we devise training programmes and nutrition guidelines that fit with your lifestyle, and our weekly check-ins are specifically designed to help reassure you that you’re doing the right thing. If this is you, get in touch. Drop me an email at lawrence@shreddedbyscience.com, and say you’ve come from the podcast. I may even offer you a podcast-exclusive discount.

In January, we're going to be focusing on one of the hottest trends of last year - veganism - to coincide with the new trend of "Veganuary". This involves going vegan for the month of January, for any one of a number of reasons: environmental, ethical or health-based.
In this introductory episode, I have an informal chat with OG SBS Radio co-host Emma Storey-Gordon, as we discuss our own NYRs and give a broad overview of whether we think Veganuary is a good NYR for you.
In this episode, I chat to Dr Rachna Patel. Dr Patel is a physician, specialising in the field of medicinal marijuana and practising in California. We dig into marijuana's mechanisms of action, discuss its role in chronic pain relief, and tackle the age-old topic of the munchies.

Welcome to this week’s SBS Radio episode - My Life With Anorexia.
A report in 2015 estimated that more than 725,000 people in the UK are affected by an eating disorder, with roughly 75-90% of those being female.
BEAT, a UK-based eating disorder charity, estimates that of those with eating disorders, 10% were anorexic, 40% were bulimic and the rest fall into the EDNOS category which included BED.
Concrete statistics are hard to come by - but what is clear is that eating disorders can be devastating, are on the rise, and are still not very well-understood. Whilst this podcast episode is by no means going to be a comprehensive guide to anorexia, I wanted to have an open, candid discussion with a couple of people regarding their experiences with anorexia and other eating disorders.
First, we have Polly Hale of the Fit Mum Formula, who was hospitalised 3 times between the ages of 18 and 22 due to her anorexia. In the second half of the podcast we’ll hear from Matt Stranberg, a registered dietitian and strength and conditioning specialist who currently is working with the Walden GOALS programme, who treat competitive athletes experiencing disordered eating behaviours.
I just wanted to thank her for being so candid and open with me. What you’re about to hear covers a particularly painful part of Polly’s life - so her willingness to discuss it on record doesn’t go unnoticed.
