A few short years ago, Jerome’s life was completely different: He was obese, he never worked out, his stress levels were sky high, and his lower back was in constant pain. 

 

But then his best friend suffered a sudden heart attack and passed away. And Jerome realized that if he didn’t start exercising, his life would also be at stake. 

 

And so, he completely upended his life, one facet at a time. 

 

Despite never being able to stick to fitness programs before, after discovering Man Flow Yoga (and specifically, the Absolute Beginners Challenge), he cracked the code to consistency—even at age 66. 

 

Within a month, his back pain vanished—and never returned. Within a couple of months, he lost 20 pounds, improved his mental health, and restored his self-image. 

 

Today, Jerome is chock-full of wisdom about improving your mental health, your physical fitness, and becoming more consistent. 

 

And he shares a wealth of knowledge in this episode, like: 

 

• Why taking personality test can finally make you consistent 

• How men over 60 can improve their sleep and stop relying on caffeine 

• The definitive way to address and improve your mental health

Quotes from this episode’s guest: 

 

• (3:59) My best friend passing made me think about trying to focus on fitness because my life literally was at stake.

• (7:38) But I realized my problem was that since I'm so low in conscientiousness I really had a problem in persevering and sticking to a program until I found Man Flow Yoga. 

• (12:47) Well, the first thing I have to say is I adjusted the time that I was doing yoga because as you know, motivation is a finite resource. So during the day, the less physical energy you have, the less mental energy you have to tackle a challenge. 

• (14:18) Shifting to the morning gave me a lot more motivation. 

• (17:09) By the end of my first month, all my back pain went away. 

• (18:27) If anybody has been to one of your programs knows that the real problem, for example, with back pain is due to the back, but the support structure of the core that supports the back.

• (20:52) And now I'm at the point that even for my regular workdays, I don't drink coffee in the morning. I don't need to because I have so much energy.
