Hey there, I’m excited for you to be here! I’m Alex and I have a passion for food and fitness. Growing up a Boy/Eagle Scout the love for the outdoors was ingrained in me from the start. However, my story goes like mosts. Once I went to college I became overweight, unhappy, and found my days consisting of Cheetos, pizza, and let’s face it – one too many beers on Friday night. 

I then met my lovely wife Lauren who was in the same boat except my Cheetos were Chick-Fil-A for her. We decided to shape up our diet and in return, I shaped up too. After cutting out all fast and processed food I dropped 80+ pounds and have kept it off since. 

Now my days are spent running, biking, swimming, hiking, and traveling. Functional exercise is what I love most. To fuel these EPIC adventures I’ve found my happy spot with a Keto style diet.

This isn’t your “eat a 48oz ribeye for dinner” style website. We focus on whole foods – tons of plants, high-quality grass-fed, pastured, or wild-caught proteins, and healthy fats. Plus, all of the recipes on Cast Iron Keto will be 100% gluten-free. THANK YOU for being here!
