So, Ben, while we have everyone here, what I'd love to do is have you answer a couple of frequently asked questions from our community.
Put me in the hot seat, baby.
So firstly, all of you who are enrolling in this product, congratulations. And please know that as a thank you for watching this masterclass up to now and investing the past hour with us, you get a special unlock price. Do not close this page. And when you enroll on this page, you'll get a pretty decent savings. So I know this program is going to be one of the best investments in your life, but we want to incentivize you to enroll and be part of the batch that's starting right now.
As a result of this masterclass airing.
Now, Ben, let's put you in the hot seat. So the first question is, what are the main outcomes for this quest?
Is it weight loss? Is it weight gain?
It is to be. So think about the superheroes, right? You have Incredible Hulk and he's huge, and Flash is super fast, and everybody's got their own unique skills. Wolverine can recover extremely quickly. I would like you to think about this in terms of being like Batman or Catwoman, right? Like, you have every skill. You have a well rounded human body and physiology that can do everything from generate strength, to live a long time, to have amazing symmetry and beauty, to feel healthy and not get sick. So the idea behind this program is not for it just to be a muscle gain or a weight loss program, because frankly, there's a lot of people that are, say, skinny, right? They don't want to lose weight. Maybe they want to put on a little bit of tight, lean muscle, or maybe they want to live a longer period of time, right? So the idea is this quest is designed to turn you into an optimized human being who has every component of what it takes to look, feel and perform the way that you want to.
I love an optimized human being. Now, number two, do I need a gym membership or any specialized equipment?
So in the very first week, I give people an extremely short list of the simple things that you need to get through this program. And it's not an expensive gym or health club membership. For example, you need a set of weights, a couple of dumbbells or a kettlebell. You need an elastic resistance band, which is basically pennies on the dollar at a sporting goods store. You need some kind of a foam roller or exercise tool that can be used for self massage and mobility work. But the list of things that you need is incredibly small. This is not a complex program. When it comes to what you need to own.
Okay, and then next question is, who is this for?
Do I need to be fit to.
Be in this program? Is it better suited for males or females? What if I'm injured or have a medical condition?
Whether you're male, female, overweight, skinny, fit, unfit, doesn't matter. This program is for anyone.
Amazing.
In fact, when we were testing out some of the ideas from this program on our team, it was majority women who enrolled in it and they had incredible results. Now question number four is, does this program cover dieting or nutrition principles or strategies?
Well, of course, like we alluded to with something like metabolic efficiency, I've woven in a few very simple strategies such as intermittent fasting, for example. However, there is a form of eating called Wild fit that I'm 100% on board with. I absolutely love it. There's already a quest about it and.
That'S a mindvalley program.
It's a mindvalley program. It's already done for you. So I didn't want to reinvent the wheel and throw a bunch of extra nutrition components.
Yeah. So if you know your biggest problem is obesity, your biggest problem is your relationship to food. You might want to start with WildFit.
Yeah, I mean WildFit pairs perfectly with this program.
Right. So the next is. I've taken many other fitness programs before. I've bought these like equipment I see on television. How is this program different?
Just like any of the mindvalley quests, there's a component that no fitness programs address. That's the stick to itiveness. Learning the strategies, learning the habits, learning the skills that equip you to be able to go out and do this on your own. You will know more than your personal trainer. You'll know more than anybody who's spending their life at a health club. You'll know more in many cases than even your physician does about things like fitness and health and beauty and longevity. The idea is that it's not just a workout program. It's a complete education for your entire body and for your health, your fitness, your beauty and your longevity for the rest of your frickin life.
The longevity blueprint is structured to give you the most efficient body transformation in the least amount of time. There will be some time commitment in the beginning, but the good news is once you put in this investment, you'll have what is probably one of the most optimized and time efficient health, fitness and longevity routines. First, you're going to need a quick 10 to 20 minutes a day for the daily lessons. You can do these in the morning. It's a great start to your day. And in addition to that, you'll need to set aside between 30 to 60 minutes of your time for your daily workout. You choose. You can make these workouts short, or you can make these workouts extend to an hour. These daily workouts are exciting, they're going to keep you on your toes, and they're designed for you to be able to follow along no matter what your current fitness level. And remember, we'll be focusing on five different areas of physical well being. Number one, strength and muscle mass. Number two, muscular endurance and anaerobic capacity. Number three, stamina. Number four, metabolic efficiency. Number five, mobility and recovery. Once you've gone through the quest, depending on your goals and your schedule, you can pick and choose which of the above you want to focus on more. So you end up with a tailor made fitness and longevity plan you can effortlessly stick to. Again, I want you to think of the initial time you spend on this area as an investment that will pay you dividends for the rest of your life. A big part of this quest is about changing your lifestyle and mimicking the lifestyle of people in Blue zones, those areas of the world that are known for highest longevity. These people don't drag themselves to the gym to work out. There is no willpower, struggle or long term commitment, which is what caused most people to give up on their health and longevity. Instead, they walk more, they move more, they have all the effortless daily habits that accumulate into powerful effects in their health, fitness and longevity. This is the ultimate goal for you with this quest. With this quest, you're never going to feel like you're a slave to a workout plan or that you don't have enough time to work out. Because your workouts are going to be so natural, so effortless, you might not even think of them as workouts anymore. Ultimately though, this quest is about giving you back more time. As in, you're not just getting back your workout time, you're also extending your lifespan. You're buying back years and years of good health time you can use to do what really matters to you, like spending time with your loved ones or improving yourself, or attaining your goals, or exploring the world. You're going to feel and look younger and you're going to have the energy and vitality to truly live your life to the absolute fullest.
Ben, any closing words?
Yes, I think this is probably the only quest that exists where there are shower scenes and bright red Speedos that's hilarious.
