Episode notes

Today’s guest, firefighter Bob M., routinely puts his body in precarious positions—crawling positions, in positions where his hands are above his head, and flexing his legs into bizarre positions—to save lives. Literally.

Yet, despite being a firefighter, he’s never had an injury on the job. In fact, he’s kept his injury-free streak alive for the past five years thanks to Man Flow Yoga.

Best part?

While his lack of injuries is great, the bizarre positions he puts his body into caused immense lower back and shoulder pain. But after doing yoga consistently for only 6 weeks, Bob freed himself of pain!

In this episode, Bob shares his best advice for men trying to become healthier and more fit, including…

Why men in their 30s and early 40s should start focusing on longevity now

How Man Flow Yoga made him a better firefighter
