Ex-Pro-Athlete Alex Feinberg: Better Results with Less Work - #65


Listen Later

As a former professional athlete with an Economics degree, Alex Feinberg went on to work in a global macro hedge fund and later became a Google employee, so he is more than just a ripped health and fitness enthusiast. 

In 2014, when he decided to change his training by running faster in just a short distance, he unexpectedly lost fat without much effort. He seemed to do everything against the book, yet he saw desirable results. Running faster at a shorter distance, lifting weights, but with fewer reps, not counting calories or tracking macros, and not sacrificing eating delicious foods.

He wants to influence and help people with this strategy - on paper, it wasn’t supposed to work, yet it has been effective with the people he trained. How is this possible?
