Fixate On The Why and Not The How
Welcome to the 9 Elements Podcast brought to you by Restore Hyper Wellness. I’m your host, Eric Hinman. Each week, I sit down with trailblazers in the fitness, nutrition, and wellness communities, exploring how they optimize their daily lives for ultimate performance to do more of what they love.
I am a 5x Ironman athlete, brand builder, and someone who’s obsessed with health and wellness - structuring much of my day around fitness and recovery protocols.
My guest today is Greg Scheinman, and Greg is proof positive that age is just a number. Through conversations in his career, he realized that there was no instruction book for men as they aged out of their 30s into “middle age.” So Greg Scheinman started a podcast, which turned into a weekly newsletter, which eventually turned into The Midlife Male movement. Greg Scheinman now helps people optimize their lives at middle age, switching the script from ‘midlife crisis’ to aspirational aging. His latest book, “The Midlife Male: A No-Bullshit Guide to Living Better, Longer, Happier, Healthier, and Wealthier and Having More Fun in Your 40s and 50s,” was released in November of 2022.
