Functional Fatherhood with Marcus Filly | Ep. 36
Please join us as I talk with Marcus Filly, founder of Functional Bodybuilding and former CrossFit games athlete. I have been following him for years, drawn to his unique programming that blends functional training, high intensity, longetivity principles, and fun. I wanted to pick his brain about how his training has evolved over the years, especially now being a father, and how he prioritizes fitness and health for his kids.
I hope you learn and enjoy this conversation as much as I did, and don't forget to subscribe and rate the show, thank you!

From https://functional-bodybuilding.com/about/:
Hi, I’m Marcus Filly, the founder of Functional Bodybuilding. After leaving medical school, I turned instead to health and fitness to help people more directly with training and nutrition in their day to day lives. Drawing on an extensive training background in soccer and my competitive Crossfit career, I owned an affiliate for years before changing methodologies to help athletes better succeed through individual coaching. After the 2016 CrossFit Games, I was burned out and broken, and about to become a first time father. Functional Bodybuilding was born out of a need to train more for longevity and sustainability – while still looking good and moving well.
