'In this episode of #foodhealspodcast, New York Times best selling author, NSCA Top Trainer of the Year and one of the top 100 most influential individuals in health and fitness, Ben Greenfield talks us through his daily routine and how you can optimize your lifestyle to become #superhuman. \"I try to live life to the fullest—archery, spear fishing, playing music, writing fiction—I try to optimize the body and the brain, and the spirit and the soul too.” Every day Ben goes through a routine that includes 30 burpees, deep tissue massage therapy, deep breathing, kundalini #yoga, and eating 20-30 portions of vegetables. All these little things add up.  Ben’s routine is changeable depending on his body. He starts his day by testing his sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system strength with the NatureBeat app which he designed. This clever app allows him to measure his heart rate variability and the strength of his body, enabling him to adapt his routine depending on what his body needs that day. So for example when the readings show a strong system, Ben starts his day with burpees and hill sprinting, but if his system needs more rest, he begins the day with kundalini yoga or deep breathing.  Sleep is massively important to Ben. Blue light, from laptops, phones and televisions, suppresses melatonin production, which in turns disrupts sleep. But there are things you can do to avoid this. Ben’s book How to Bio-Hack a Healthy Home teaches ways you can make your home a healthier environment for your body.  Ben is an #entrepreneur. He owns his own company Greenfield Fitness Systems and is an author, podcaster, and public speaker—we think he’s superhuman! Home-schooled from a young age, he was an independent learner. “I’m hardwired to be an entrepreneur,” says Ben, whose dad used to run seven different businesses. When he mastered tennis, he began teaching his friends how to play, and used the money to pay for college. In college, he worked at a bakery, at a gym and at a pub. “I enjoy hard work, and I enjoy creating things,” Ben’s turned his passion for #fitness and outdoors into his career.
