Greg O’Gallagher is a fitness expert and founder of Kinobody where he teaches men how to get into Movie Star shape. Not just lose fat and gain muscle, but gain muscle in a specific proportion and lean down to under 10% body fat. His philosophy is honed in on intermittent fasting, lifting strategically 3x per week, and turning fitness into a lifestyle – where one can enjoy big steak dinners and cocktails and life outside the gym. In the last few years Greg O’Gallagher has helped thousands of men get into movie star shape. He believes fitness should enrich your life, not consume it, and believes that the key to getting into incredible shape is actually very simple.
