Monumental Strength How to Get Fit (and Actually Enjoy It)

Published: Dec. 18, 2018, 10:09 a.m.

I made two big mistakes when I was pursuing financial independence\u2026

The first was I put off happiness\xa0until I hit FI.

The second was I also put off my health.

In today\u2019s episode of the Financial Independence Podcast, I chat to my personal trainer, Doug from Monumental Strength.

Doug has spent the past two years taking me from a puny computer programmer to a strong, healthy weightlifter!

It\u2019s been a fantastic journey, with numerous unexpected benefits, so don\u2019t wait until FI like I did. Start focusing on your health now and drastically improve your journey to FI (and your life beyond)!

Highlights:

  • Why lifting weights is a perfect activity for improving your health
  • How to build a good workout plan
  • Why free weights are better than machines
  • What to eat if you want to build muscle
  • Why weightlifting is better than running for burning fat and losing weight
  • How to progress to doing more difficult lifts
  • The benefits of intermittent fasting
