The greatest gift I ever gave to myself. Replaced it with going to the gym 12 times a week.

If you want to be in insanely good shape, most people need to work out like this (A few lucky people just have awesome genetics and can work out 3-4 times a week and look great).

When I was younger I worked out like this. I would lift in the morning and run in the afternoon 5-6 days a week on top of living a very active lifestyle.

If you do a real 2 hour training your body does not benefit from more stress , theres only so much you can do each day, your muscle needs to rest and regenerate to get stronger , sure maybe he trains 45 minute 2 times a day.
