Ep. #770: How Joe Chura Used Bigger Leaner Stronger to Lose Over 50 Pounds


Listen Later

In this podcast, I interview Joe Chura, who used what he learned in Bigger Leaner Stronger to get healthy and fit, and improve his well-being.

Before finding my work, Joe was climbing the ranks in the automotive industry and building his own dealership company, Dealer Inspire. Unfortunately, while he was successfully growing his business, he neglected his health, and things started to deteriorate.

Between drinking a lot of alcohol, not making time to exercise, and work stress, he was more than 50 pounds overweight and developed health issues like WPW syndrome and had to have back surgery.

Once he sold his companies, though, and nearly having a heart attack, he realized how important his health was. After all, what good was all his hard work if he worked himself to death? And that’s where my work comes in.

Joe found and read Bigger Leaner Stronger and started following the workouts and improving his diet, which has helped him get fit and dramatically improve his everyday life.

In this episode, we chat about . . .

  • How Joe got started in the automotive industry
  • How he ignored his health and body while building his business
  • His realization of how important physical health is and how he changed his routine and diet
  • Making time to read
  • The importance of having goals to work towards
  • How to be productive while multi-tasking and the myth of the “overnight success”
  • What he would've changed in his entrepreneurship journey knowing what he knows now
  • Why he started his own podcast
  • And more . . .

So, if you want to hear Joe’s story and what he learned in Bigger Leaner Stronger that radically transformed his health for the better, listen to this podcast!
