Understanding Human Performance and Literally Becoming a Better Person with Elliot Kleven

The Society Life Podcast

Welcome to episode #35 of the SLP. Today I’m proud and happy to finally have Fitness Professional Elliot Kleven on the show. If I had to pin exactly what I thought was the most import theme of this episode it is being a good human and love your family. What does this have to do with your fitness and health? Everything. “If your family is good, then everything is good.” Elliot has been a fitness professional since his early 20’s and and to be honest I don’t see many fitness professionals like him. I do think there is a difference between a Fitness Professional and a Personal Trainer. Elliot checks the box of what it means to care about the craft of physical fitness. His clients with whom he works with and also bringing out the best of his fellow colleagues that train and work under him. He has worked with everyone from your everyday person looking to becoming healthier and live a longer life of longevity to professional athletes that want to become better at their sport. If I had to explain the situation in sport terms (because I love sports) it would feel along the lines of drafting a top 5 pick or trading for a big name player you know can make an impact for your team and the organization. I’m really proud to introduce him my gym and you guys on this platform. This is part 1 of this series with Elliot so please enjoy this episode and thank you guys for listening! :)
