Young and Profiting with Hala Taha
Business:Entrepreneurship
Ben Greenfield grew up in northern Idaho, a self-described homeschooled geek who played the violin and chess and spent most of his time reading or writing fantasy fiction. But, as a teenager, he discovered tennis and working out, which led him to buy a pair of cheap 10-pound dumbbells at the local sporting goods store and transform himself into an athlete. Eventually, he grew up to be a bodybuilder, Ironman triathlete, nutritionist, and trainer who is now one of the foremost biohacking experts in the world. In today’s episode, Ben will share some of his best biohacking techniques for achieving total human optimization—mind, body, and spirit.
Ben Greenfield is a trainer, coach, speaker, podcast host, best-selling author, and a very involved parent. His latest book is called Boundless Parenting. Ben has an unquenchable enthusiasm for optimizing and improving human performance, and he has helped millions through his biohacking strategies and techniques.
