Summary

Ben Greenfield, a biohacker, performance coach, ex-bodybuilder, Ironman triathlete, professional Spartan athlete, professional speaker, and New York Times best-selling author, is a returning guest of this podcast.

In his first episode, he dove into how to biohack health by sharing what he does to improve his performance and his overall health using his top principles.

Dr. Anthony Gustin and Ben Greenfield take things a step further in today’s episode by getting into a number of different topics from fortifying the immune system, raising healthy families, unschooling, and so much more.

Ben also gets into what he’s doing to keep his family and his immune system protected during this Covid pandemic and how he’s keeping his physical and mental health strong while being quarantined.

So, when you tune in, you’ll hear more about Ben’s breathwork, cold work, his blood flow restricted training regimen, and his approach to raising a healthy family, among other topics.

If you didn’t catch Ben’s first episode, or you don’t know him, he’s a beast to say the least.

On top of everything mentioned earlier, Ben Greenfield is also a Spartan SGX certified coach, he won NSCA’s Personal Trainer of the Year award in 2008, and he was named one of the top 100 Most Influential People in Health and Fitness in 2013 and 2014.

He’s also recently launched another book titled, Boundless, which teaches people how to upgrade their brain and optimize their bodies to defy aging.

You’ll hear more about this book and some of Ben’s top principles when you tune into the episode.
