The Strength Equation: Unlocking Fitness Through Data and Discipline with Philip Pape

Mike “C-Roc” sits down with strength and nutrition coach Philip Pape to dive into the power of data-driven fitness, mindset, and longevity. Philip shares how he transitioned from a self-proclaimed “nerd” with no athletic background to a strength-training advocate who helps people build muscle, optimize nutrition, and achieve sustainable health goals. They break down why lifting weights is one of the most powerful tools for longevity, the truth about carbs and protein, and how tracking your progress (yes, spreadsheets included!) can revolutionize your fitness journey. Plus, Philip shares his four pillars—curiosity, spreadsheets, deadlifts, and dad jokes—and how they shape his unique approach to coaching. If you're looking to take control of your health with practical, science-backed strategies, this episode is a must-listen!
