Neapolitan Bodybuilding Podcast

Neapolitan Bodybuilding Podcast is Big Freakin' Neil's take on the sport, and the name is a clue to the format: three flavors in one scoop, meaning training, nutrition, and the personal stories of the lifters who actually do this for a living. Neil comes at the show from a coach and competitor background, and his episodes swing between technical breakdowns of exercise selection, rep schemes, and progressive overload, and longer form conversations with guests about their careers, their setbacks, and the unglamorous routine work that builds a competitive physique. The tone is friendly and self-deprecating, with Neil happy to poke fun at himself and the sport's more absurd corners while still taking the craft of bodybuilding seriously. Regular guests include natural and enhanced competitors, coaches, and strength athletes who bring different perspectives on programming and recovery. Topics rotate through practical ground like calorie targets, meal timing, sleep, stress management, and the math of a realistic bulk, alongside more personal discussions about why people stay in a sport that punishes them. The show has found an audience with intermediate lifters who are past the beginner phase and want more nuanced information than what a generic fitness influencer offers, but who also don't want to wade through forty minute rants about hormone protocols.
