108: 56-Year-Old Wildlife Photographer Battles 200+ Tumors with Yoga (Lee H.)


Listen Later

Lee H., a 56-year-old wildlife photographer, hasn’t always been a bastion of health. After a shocking divorce, Lee ballooned up to almost 300 pounds even though he only stands 5’7” tall!

To make matters worse… Not only does Lee’s career make him put his body into bizarre positions—sometmes for hours at a time—but Lee also suffers from multiple familial lipoma syndrome: A rare, genetic skin condition that causes him to have 200-300 tumors on his body at any given time. 

And you know what?

Thanks to Man Flow Yoga, Lee lost 50+ pounds, extended his photography career, and used it as a starting point for dialing in his diet. 

Today, Lee’s happier, healthier, and more energetic in his mid-50s than he ever was in his 30s or 40s. And he has a ton of wisdom to help you live your healthiest life too, including…

  • How to better prioritize your life to make fitness a breeze 
  • How to bounce back after falling off your fitness journey
  • Why yoga will make a bigger impact in your overall life than any other form of exercise (even if you laugh at the idea of yoga today)

And more! 

Highlights from this episode include: 

  • Why yoga is one of the best ways to fight against multiple familial lipoma syndrome (5:10) 
  • How to go from a complete, inflexible beginner to being able to do several yoga poses by just following a few Man Flow Yoga programs (8:19)

Quotes from this episode’s guest: 

  • (5:16) I got to a point where because of my weight, because of my tumors that I'm almost always in constant pain from a tumor somewhere. Man Flow Yoga prevents me from being wheelchair-ridden. 
  • (6:14) When you look at most yoga pictures, it's thin young women in poses that would break my bones. And to be honest, four or five years ago, if you'd brought up yoga to me, I would have made fun of it. 
  • (8:10) If I knew about Man Flow Yoga as a teenager, I probably would have won state as a wrestler. I would have been a much better running back. I would have been a much better husband. I'd have been a much better father. I'd have been a much better lover. 
  • (11:40) I may not be your typical guy doing yoga, but the reality is, Man Flow Yoga is for every guy out there.
