He also serves as a combative trainer for government agencies including the US Marshals, US Marines, US Army Rangers, and US Navy SEALs. James is an intense, but friendly guy and is very knowledgeable in plant-based eating for athletes. We talked about the eating cultures and the need to focus more on nutrition and of course, we cover the topic of protein.
