After hundreds of YouTube videos on the Critical Bench YouTube channels and an almost endless list of credentials, Zach Zenios has devoted his life to strength, health optimization and mental toughness.

He’s a kettlebell expert, USMC Veteran, Yoga instructor, Structural Therapist and the list goes on and on. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Coach Zach Zenios has it all… and at the young age of 29!

In today’s Part 1 conversation, Zach and host Chris Wilson go deep on defining functional fitness, discuss the power of breath work and developing mindfulness. And be sure to stay tuned for Part 2 released 3 days later where Zach reveals his thoughts about today’s apparent attack on masculinity.

“A lot of people label things functional fitness that is not really functional... That’s why there’s lot of confusion. But to me, functional fitness is simple. It’s centering your training on things that you would do in real life and things that you do often. - Zach Zenios
