What happens when one of the fittest men in rugby league breaks down and has to rebuild from scratch?

Anthony Minichiello reveals how hitting rock bottom with his body led to a complete reset in how he trains, eats, thinks and lives.

Anthony pulls back the curtain on what it actually takes to perform at the highest level, lose it all to injury, then come back stronger. He unpacks how farm life built his engine, how nutrition and gut health helped repair his spine, and why MiniFit is all about giving kids a smarter foundation for life.

He also gets real on caffeine, energy drinks, hydration, fasting and the daily habits that keep him sharp long after his NRL career.
