Elite vs Everyday: What Actually Makes the Difference with Neal Lattimore

What really separates elite athletes from everyday gym-goers?

Is it genetics, mindset, training, or something else entirely?

In this episode, I sit down with Neal Lattimore, a strength & conditioning coach with experience across every level of the fitness world. From working with professional footballers at Peterborough United, to educating future fitness coaches, to now owning his own gym. Neal has seen what works, what doesn’t, and what truly moves the needle for performance and transformation.
