Chris Brogan (pictured above after going from a fat keyboard slob to conquering SEALFit workouts) is author of the book "Just Start Here: Lose Weight, Get Stronger and FINALLY Succeed at Your Goals.".
As an internet entrepreneur, Chris is a self-professed complete non-expert in the field of fitness.
But nonetheless, I read his book. And it is actually quite good.
So in today's podcast episode, Chris joins us, and you learn: -Why you need a story that defines you if you want to truly master fitness and diet... -Why willpower is stupid... -Why Chris puts so many pictures of himself on Instagram... -How losing weight should be an “hourly” experience... -Chris's potent “time quilting” strategy for enhancing fat loss... -And much more!
Resources we discuss in this episode: -Chris's Instagram account -Just Start Here: Lose Weight, Get Stronger and FINALLY Succeed at Your Goals. -BossFitMag.com

1:01.7 | somebody on the show who is a self-proclaimed ignoramus when it comes to fitness but has actually |
