If you’re a man over 35 looking for a simple, effective and personalized plan to help you look, feel and perform better than you did in your 20s, head to https://muscleintelligence.com/mipapply to learn more about our upcoming programs.

I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by my good friend and mentor, Brian Johnson. Brian is the founder of Heroic, which has been one of my top personal development resources for over 15 years.

My interview with Brian contained some valuable insights about self mastery and growth, and he invited me to share it on the Muscle Intelligence Podcast. We discuss my personal journey and the concept of being a radiant exemplar, as well as how to become a positive influence on others and lead to change.

Brian has spent years integrating the wisdom of our forefathers with the logic of modern behavioral science, and sharing it with others. His philosophy has been incredibly valuable to my own mission to empower men to first master their physical bodies and mindset, on the path to live an optimized life.
