This week's episode of the Restore To Explore podcast brings a fascinating conversation with guest Marcus Filly. During our recent trip to the US, we had the opportunity to catch up with Marcus, where we introduced him to some of our training and had him take Jim through his Functional Bodybuilding training methods. Marcus Filly is renowned for his involvement in competitive CrossFit and Bodybuilding, bringing a wealth of experience and insight to the discussion. In our conversation, Marcus opens up about his journey transitioning to natural footwear, sharing how he used to prioritize shoes for fashion rather than function. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Marcus made a complete transition to Barefoot shoes and has since never looked back. He now wears natural footwear for all activities, including training, running, walking, and even going out. Jim and Marcus delve into the idea of sacrificing performance for function and vice versa when individuals' goals change, highlighting the trade-off often seen in elite sports. Marcus shares valuable insights on starting Functional Bodybuilding and essential considerations for anyone looking to embark on this journey. Tune in to hear Marcus's unique perspective and practical tips for incorporating Functional Bodybuilding into your routine.
