That guy in the photo above climbing the tree like an ancient ape is Tony Federico.

Tony is one of the leaders of the Paleo movement, and a guy I met several years ago at the PaleoFx conference. He is the host of the Paleo Magazine Radio podcast, editor of Paleo Fitness Magazine, and the author of “Paleo Grilling: A Modern Caveman's Guide to Cooking with Fire“. In addition to his work in the Paleo community, Tony is a full-time personal trainer with 10 years of experience in the fitness industry…

…and he's quite knowledgeable on living ancestrally in a modern world, even if you don't have any desire to be a coconut-collecting caveman.

During our discussion, you'll discover:

-How Tony has biohacked his office to make it more ancestral…

-Why sitting isn't necessarily evil…

-How you can figure out what's ancestral and what's not…

-How you can sleep ancestrally, yet still live a modern life with streetlights, car headlights, night work, etc…

-How you can tweak your electronic environment at work to be more ancestral…

-Whether Crossfit, Spartan, triathlons, etc. are ancestral forms of movement…

-And much more!
