Amrou Fudl

Myron Gaines is a pseudonym for podcaster Amrou Fudl. Amrou Fudl began using the pseudonym Myron Gaines around 2018-2019 when he started his fitness business while still employed as a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) special agent with a Top Secret clearance. He adopted the name to separate his professional law enforcement career from his online persona, as using his real name could have posed security risks or conflicted with agency policies. The name "Gaines" likely reflects his focus on fitness and bodybuilding ("gains"). He continued using the pseudonym after resigning from DHS in December 2020 to focus on his YouTube channel and the Fresh and Fit podcast, launched in October 2020, as it had become established with his audience.
