Matt Wan is the Founder and CEO at Momentous, a sports nutrition startup on a mission to change the supplement industry.

Momentous is the first and only brand of its kind to collaborate directly with dietitians and strength coaches from all four Major Leagues, and after launching their first product line last year, they can already count more than 40 professional sports teams as customers.

Matt and I talk about why he wanted to start Momentous, the unique process him and his team went through to formulate the product line, and most importantly, his long-term goal with creating the company.

Want to Improve Your Coaching Skills?

This May, I’m going to be hosting a small workshop focused on coaching the lower body lifts.

This isn’t going to be one of those massive seminars where someone stands in front of a PowerPoint deck and lectures to you all day, though.

This event is going to be focused on coaching, cuing, and having a little fun in the process.
