Health & Fitness Redefined

What does it take to completely reinvent your life? Not once, but multiple times?
Anthony Amen takes us through his extraordinary journey from a severely bullied teen who once contemplated suicide to the founder of Redefine Fitness, a revolutionary approach to health that treats exercise as true medicine.
Standing at his darkest hour with a knife in hand, Anthony made a life-altering choice – instead of ending his life, he would become someone entirely new. Through what he calls "repetitive exercise" in his mind, he transformed from a shy, isolated teen into an outgoing person who created his own community of friends. Years later, when a devastating sports accident left doctors telling him he'd never regain full mobility in his neck and shoulder, Anthony once again refused to accept limitation. After three and a half years of determined work, he restored what medical professionals deemed impossible.
These profound experiences shaped his mission: creating a fitness company that genuinely helps people overcome depression, recover from injuries, and reverse health conditions that traditional medicine often manages rather than solves. During COVID, Anthony's commitment to this vision led him to raise half a million dollars for lawsuits that ultimately reopened gyms across New York State.
Beyond physical training, Anthony delivers powerful insights about micro habits that transform mental and physical wellbeing. He challenges listeners to examine how much time they spend on screens, why walking might be the most underrated health practice, and why extreme approaches to diet and exercise often fail. Perhaps most compelling is his message about personal responsibility – acknowledging that while we don't control everything that happens to us, we absolutely control how we respond.
Whether you're struggling with your mental health, physical limitations, or simply feeling stuck, Anthony's story offers both inspiration and practical wisdom for creating meaningful change. His urgent message? "Don't start tomorrow. Don't start Monday. Start right now."
