About this episode
The Life Stylist is about building the ultimate lifestyle based on the most powerful principles of health and spirituality – and there's no one better to talk to about the fitness side of things than John Wolf, the Chief Fitness Officer for Onnit and a phenom in the fitness industry. Not only do the unconventional fitness systems pioneered by John and the rest of the folks at Onnit change you physiologically, but they also change you emotionally and psychologically. And those gains are just as significant as muscle mass or range of movement, if not more. Going into your local YMCA or Gold's Gym and lifting weights is all well and good, but you deserve better than the norm. Because adopting conventional mindsets and conventional activities will only yield you conventional results. Do you want to create a lifestyle that is unconventional and transform your mind and body into something exceptional? Want a community that offers vital support? Then you have to check out the wisdom John shares in this episode. Topics Discussed In This Episode: Belcampo, the best place in LA for good, clean farm-to-table food Starting martial arts at just four years old & how that helped shape John into the man he is today The dark period of John’s life: when he started doing meth and how he found himself on the side of a freeway How John got into the fitness world The open company culture of Onnit & their cosmonaut experiences How an alternative fitness system changes you, physiologically and emotionally How the functional fitness movement allows you to train hard, but also safely Creating a framework of early and frequent success, with limitations on how frequent failure occurs relative to an individual’s resiliency towards failure. The natural movements that every human being should be able to use as an adult, but that many of us lose due to our sedentary lifestyle (and how you can regain movement) What you can do to proactively integrate body support and recovery into your active lifestyle More about this episode.
