Summary

Hi, I'm Max Shank. I've written 3 books and taught over a hundred courses in countries around the world. These experiences have allowed me to help 10's of Thousands of people across the globe improve their lives through physical fitness. I also have the pleasure to operate the best damn gym in Encinitas, CA (Southern California) called Ambition Athletics, where hundreds more get better every day. I like to experiment and explore the human condition. Fitness is my primary method of developing life-altering skills. In addition, I've picked up guitar, piano, and drums as an adult. Recently, I built my dining room table with my own two hands using no screws or nails. Life is full of opportunities for growth and I look forward to exploring as many as I possible can! My mission in life is to give people the freedom to pursue any athletic endeavor for their entire lives. I want for everyone else, what I have been able to achieve. The ability to try anything I want, while continuing to get better every day. This is the secret to a lifetime of what we call health and fitness. I'm here to give you physical freedom, and to help you get better every day. Join me, it's far more fun this way. Better every day, -Max Learn more at http://maxshank.com/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
