Description
Aside from having amazingly cool stories, Mark Divine is a NY Times bestselling author, has a MBA in finance, created two of the most sought after workout routines and did yoga in Saddam Hussein's palace. His SEALFIT and Kokoro yoga workouts are designed for a gamut of fitness levels and encourage mental capacity as well as physical focus. He talks with Drew and Lynn about how he uses the 3 pillar rule to keep his clients’ body and mind in top shape. Look for his new book “Unbeatable Fuel” which will be out soon.
Key Takeaways:
[7:44] Mark was privileged to learn martial arts from an enlightened master who was a 10th degree black belt before he discovered yoga.
[17:27] Mark’s personal yoga practice includes box breathing, standing poses and high intensity exercises or fighting moves; then he finishes up with seated poses and visualizations.
[20:26] Mark’s personal mission is to dispel the idea of ‘yoga is a group sport’.
[23:56] SEALFIT started when Mark was training Navy SEALs, non-stop for 30-days. He wanted to develop their mental focus so he integrated yoga into the program.
[28:52] What is the difference between SEALFIT and Kokoro yoga?
[36:05] Mark recommends these programs for people of varying levels of fitness.
[37:50] A crucible is a significant challenge which gets you out of your comfort zone.

[58:04] The Lightning Round.
