#627 Fitness Expert and Author Andrei Yakovenko

Please join Dave the Mystic on Monday, May 15, 2023 at 8pm MDT with guest Andrei Yakovenko.  Originally from Ukraine, Andrei Yakovenko left for Israel at the age of 20 with less than $5 in his pocket. Three years later he decided, along with his fiancé́, to permanently move to Canada. Determined to succeed, he got a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Toronto, went to graduate school at McMaster University, and then built a successful career as a partner in a geophysics business. Years later, Andrei came across the book Body by Science, which introduced him to the scientific principle of high-intensity strength training (HIT). After putting the training principles into practice with a group of friends, Andrei saw profound physical changes, and began learning as much as he could about high-intensity strength training and its unmatched health benefits. He discovered how proper exercise, and in particular HIT, had the power to transform lives, including his own. Andrei decided to leave his highly paid career in geophysics and set up New Element Training, a group of premier, high-intensity strength-training studios in Toronto, Canada. NET features the largest selection of MedX equipment in Canada and specializes in the time-efficient method of Mindful Strength Training to Failure. In his ten years of running his gyms he has trained thousands of clients.

We will be discussing the book he co-authored with Philip Shepherd Deep Fitness – The Mindful Science-Based Strength-Training Method to Transform Your Well-Being in Just 30 Minutes a Week 

Thanks for listening!

Blessings
