If I have to convince you to prioritize your health, Muscle Intelligence coaching isn't for you…. If I have to convince you that the best investment you can make is in yourself…. That being fit is not a temporary decision, but a commitment…. That it's not about MORE or what you do, it's about BETTER and how you do it... Or that your physical health impacts all areas of your life, keep scrolling.

I'm not in the business of convincing anyone. I'm in the business of transformation.

The individuals who come to us are already high-performers. They're committed. Ready.

Don't get me wrong - These guys come with challenges too. They typically have limited time to train, injuries, no gym access, busy families, no customized plans, no specific training knowledge, no coach and an inner fear that it's going to be too hard.

But here's the tough love you need to hear: The only difference between these guys and YOU… is that they took action. They stepped in the ring anyway.

I'm looking for a few more men who want to transform in 2022. If you're serious and you're committed, I'd love to see if you're a right fit for a program I'm starting in 2022. Apply now at https://go.muscleintelligence.com/coaching-application/

Deciphering the impact of our dietary choices on our own health, social and cultural discrepancies, and the future of the environment, is increasingly challenging among the mass of information that most of us face daily. There is a case for eating beef that offers an opportunity for environmental restoration, preservation of traditional cultural practices, and an equal chance at health for as many populations as possible. Today's guest, Robb Wolf, has done the research, isolated the facts, and uncovered revelations that debunk years of dietary dogma.

You'll learn:

• Crucial considerations that may be at odds with common nutritional propaganda.
• What industrial, monocropped food systems mean for the future of the planet.
• How consciously raising livestock can actually reverse climate change.
• Why the direction of Big Food hits those near the bottom of the socio-economic ladder the hardest.
• The dangers and dispassion behind the movement to eliminate global traditional food systems.

Robb Wolf, a former research biochemist, is the New York Times & WSJ Best Selling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired To Eat. Robb's newest book is Sacred Cow, co-authored by Diana Rodgers, R.D. Robb has transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people around the world via his top ranked iTunes podcast, books and seminars.

After a 20-year bodybuilding career, everyone asks why I've changed the way that I train, and why I approach fitness and health so differently after retiring from competition. As I continue to build upon the foundation of being lean, healthy, and muscular for life, longevity has become a huge focus for myself and the high-achieving individuals who go through Muscle Intelligence training.

• Everyday practices to help you maintain quality of life as you get older (and why it's SO important to start young).
• Nutritional and supplemental protocols to optimize performance, energy, and cognition.
• Why muscles are EXTREMELY important, valuable organs.
• How intentionality, clarity, and mindfulness transform into true fulfillment.
• Plus...the ONE factor that defines the entire aging process.

P.S. Today's episode comes with a special offer: I've got episode notes for you (click here!) that make it easy to keep today's tips with you as you move through the rest of your month, year, and life.

If I have to convince you to prioritize your health, Muscle Intelligence coaching isn't for you…. If I have to convince you that the best investment you can make is in yourself…. That being fit is not a temporary decision, but a commitment…. That it's not about MORE or what you do, it's about BETTER and how you do it... Or that your physical health impacts all areas of your life, keep scrolling.

I'm not in the business of convincing anyone. I'm in the business of transformation.

The individuals who come to us are already high-performers. They're committed. Ready.

Don't get me wrong - These guys come with challenges too. They typically have limited time to train, injuries, no gym access, busy families, no customized plans, no specific training knowledge, no coach and an inner fear that it's going to be too hard.

But here's the tough love you need to hear: The only difference between these guys and YOU… is that they took action. They stepped in the ring anyway.

I'm looking for a few more men who want to transform in 2022. If you're serious and you're committed, I'd love to see if you're a right fit for a program I'm starting in 2022. Apply now at https://go.muscleintelligence.com/coaching-application/
