A Life-Changing Night

Eric & Chris were only 17 when, just three days before Christmas, a chaplain and highway patrol officer knocked on their door. Their father had been killed in a car accident, “and from that moment our life pretty much turned around in a 360.”

They lost their father, and as a result it felt like they lost part of their mother. Ultimately, they lost their role models.

The Martinez brothers realized they were going down a dark path, and they were lucky enough to meet their first mentor. He taught them the science behind fitness and body composition, and that really laid the foundation for their careers.

A Life-Changing Mastermind

The Martinez brothers really took mentorship to the next level when they joined Tai Lopez’s mastermind. They had to offer up a whopping $25,000 to join – it was scary, but it felt like the step they needed to take.

And, in the end, “it was probably one of the best investments we’ve ever made.”

It didn’t teach them one strategy to completely transform their business, but it did completely transform their mindset.

“The mindset we acquired from Tai Lopez’s mastermind is just relentless, it’s unstoppable. Nothing is going to stop us from attaining our vision and impacting the world in what we’re set out to do.”

The New Era of Fitness

If you’re an entrepreneur putting health on the backburner, then Eric & Chris Martinez have a message for you: STOP!

“Put health at the forefront. After that, you can focus on your wealth, your love, and your happiness… but today, I see so many people putting their health on the backburner because they aren’t seeing some sort of ROI coming out of that.”
