Meet Paul Lagoda --- 2024 NPC California State Champion in Men's Bodybuilding.
For Paul, success comes down to the details that show up where it matters most: in the mirror and on stage. During his prep, he discovered that adding Papa Vince Extra Virgin Olive Oil made a noticeable difference --- helping him bring a sharper, cleaner look that carried him to victory. Today, EVOO isn't just part of his diet, it's part of his championship story.
Why Paul Reached for Olive Oil
As a competitor, Paul knew olive oil was supposed to be one of the best fats he could use --- but he struggled with most brands.
- Other brands made him feel sluggish or even nauseous.
- He avoided using them, assuming olive oil simply wasn't for him.
That changed when a fellow coach introduced him to Papa Vince.
"It was completely different. I felt sharper, lighter, and the flavor was amazing. I could actually enjoy olive oil."
What Made the Difference
Paul highlights three big shifts:
- Mirror Results -- The most noticeable difference: a sharper, cleaner look on stage and in the mirror.
- Performance Feel -- Less sluggishness and a "cleaner" energy during prep.
- Taste -- Unlike other oils, Papa Vince was smooth, fresh, and easy to add on top of meal prep.
- Athlete Feedback -- His clients also reported positive changes when swapping oils.
"The quality matters. It's the difference between first place and fifth place. Details like this add up."
Paul's EVOO Routine
- Meal prep finish: pours measured EVOO over proteins, carbs, and veggies.
- Daily staple: added to almost every container for both taste and quality.
- Shared with athletes: part of the nutrition playbook he builds for his team.
A Note on Research
Olive oil naturally contains polyphenols, including hydroxytyrosol.
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) allows the claim that olive oil polyphenols help protect blood lipids from oxidative stress when you consume 5 mg of hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives per 20 g of olive oil.
Papa Vince is lab-tested to publish its hydroxytyrosol levels transparently.
In Paul's Words
"The quality and results don't lie. It tastes great, feels great, and it's a real family product made with care. That's what makes it stand out."
