Listen Later

Has your health gone south irrespective of a skyrocketing professional trajectory? Wondering how you can reverse this viciousness?

Born in Pittsburgh in a traditional Jewish family, Mark shares that he was always pudgy and suffered from unhealthy eating habits while growing up. 

These habits notwithstanding, Mark represented his college in water polo. At the age of 22, Mark remembers experiencing bittersweet feelings after a particularly hard-fought victory over UCLA. 

While he was ecstatic over the outcome of the match, Mark had a premonition that he was in the best shape of his life. Or in other words, his health had nowhere to go but downhill moving fore-ward. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened. 

While Mark went on to enjoy massive successes, the demands of his profession had a telling impact on his health.

Starting at a law firm, Mark eventually went on to helm large, well-known organizations like E! News and GSN. In this segment of the show, you will learn how Mark and his team managed to tread the fine line between profitability and growth. 

Last year, just after covid broke out, like many of us, Mark was in “self-soothing” mode. And he decided to resort to fitness so that he could snap out. 

Before meeting Dan, Mark tipped the scale at 212 pounds. With 30% body fat, he was suffering from high blood pressure and cholesterol.

After a year of following Dan’s regimen, Mark is at a healthy 175 pounds and a body fat percentage of a respectable 17.5%.

Learn how getting fitter has had a ripple impact on Mark’s life.

Enjoy!
