Podcast Ep 61: YouTube Star Millionaire Hoy

Get ready to join the “Fist Bump Family” after learning about the awesomeness that is Millionaire Hoy, a native of the south side of Chicago who gave up his crazy, busy life as a graphic designer (well, a visit to the hospital helped with that decision!) and started teaching boot camp classes in his at-risk neighborhood for free. Because the insanely cold Midwest winters caused his students to move indoors for workouts, he decided to launch a YouTube channel — which now boasts more than 217,000 subscribers!

The enterprising father of five gets up every morning at 4:30 and packs his day with creating video workouts, inspiring his fans to keep on their healthy journey and working on expanding his fitness empire. He talked with FBG Jenn and me about his unusual upbringing, his fitness heroes and the music that inspires to be and do more good in the world. Get ready for some serious inspiration!

We are thrilled to say we are again sponsored by VARIDESK. When it comes to making your workspace as healthy as the rest of your life, well, they’ve got it going on. See all the cool goodies they offer here.
