After a series of injuries as a college athlete, Nate began to explore the transformative power of bodywork. He trained in neuromuscular therapy, myofascial release, and dynamic movement at Health Works Institute in Montana, and later as a paramedic and firefighter in Los Angeles County.
Nate intuitively discovered the benefits of a keto/anti-inflammatory diet, through which he lost not only 80 pounds, but the pain he had been in for years. Now, Nate is on a mission to change others’ lives as well—with an anti-inflammatory diet being key to incredible results. Through his background as an athlete, bodywork specialist, paramedic, and firefighter, Nate is able to empathize with clients in order to treat the root of the problem, providing freedom from pain and immediate improvements in performance. His healing and high performance superfood creations ensure that the client’s body maintains optimized results—without sacrificing taste.
An Active Release Technique® (ART) specialist and Whole Body Level 2-Certified, Nate has worked as a personal bodywork specialist for some of the country’s most elite professional athletes and performers, including Alex Rodriguez, the St. Louis Blues, the Kings, and the casts of Wicked, Phantom of the Opera, and Rent.

Kaitlyn Johnson is a swimmer/crossfitter from Morgantown, WV who recently qualified for the 2024 Olympic Swim Trials in the 50 meter freestyle. Born and raised in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, she played different sports growing up but ultimately stuck with swimming. She continued to swim in college at Clarion University of Pennsylvania, ending her collegiate career as a 28x All American (one of only two people to achieve this in school history) and 9x school record holder. She retired from swimming after the 2016 Olympic Trials and found crossfit a couple years later. In 2022, after only swimming here and there since 2016, she decided to add swimming into her crossfit training as recovery once a week. She signed up for a local swim meet for fun in April 2022 to find herself qualifying for U.S. Summer Nationals in Irvine, California in July. At Nationals, she ended up placing 13th overall with two lifetime best swims, both times being under the 2024 Olympic Trial cut. Kaitlyn achieved qualification for the trials doing Crossfit 5x/week and only swimming once a week. Exclusive to WODcast listeners: 2POOD The official belt of USA Weightlifting.

Growing up in West Michigan, David Vanderveen and his older brother learned how to surf among the sometimes ferocious fresh-water waves created during storms on Lake Michigan. He was arrested for skateboarding in empty city pools and was kicked out of school three times—twice for his poetry (once in 7th grade and again during his junior year at Wheaton College) and once for his exceptional cocktail mixology skills (also in 7th grade, but not at Wheaton). After some negotiations and promises to stop with the poetry, David matriculated to and graduated from Calvin College, Wheaton’s sister school, with degrees in philosophy and political science. |
