1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Max Shank is the most interesting man in the world.&amp;nbsp; Or perhaps he is the most 'interested' man in the world.&amp;nbsp; As an author, coach and owner of Ambition athletics in Encinitas California, and a world class competitor Max has a deep understanding of the fitness industry and why people actually want to get stronger, fitter, slimmer, bigger, and grow bumpy abs.&amp;nbsp; Max is always questioning why we do what we do. As a result he has come to some conclusions that are powerful and can have an impact in your life immediately and easily.&amp;nbsp; In an industry that is focused on fast results and suffering to gain rewards Max has shifted his gaze in order to gain a new perspective on how to feel loved, content, and able to fully engage with this reality.&amp;nbsp; Quote of the episode: ‘We don’t like it when people do heroin but if someone kills themselves with Cheeto’s we’re like yeah that’s alright I guess.’ I had a blast talking with Max and there are some takeaways that I implemented into my daily routine easily.&amp;nbsp; We talked about: - The Power of Cycles in Life - Something is WAY Better than Nothing - The Power of Moving for 5 Minutes Each Morning - Why It’s Hard to Start BUT It’s Also Hard to Stop - Why suffering is not necessary to make progress - Working out your stomach muscles and restricting your food choices is a weird way to find love.
