Bodybuilder & Comedian? Andrew Ginsburg on His Dual Dream Gig

Bodybuilder & Comedian? Andrew Ginsburg on His Dual Dream Gig

Sometimes career success doesn’t have to be a single pursuit. Sometimes you can combine two unlikely things and have a fulfilling professional purpose!

A champion bodybuilder, personal trainer and comedian for the past 20 years, Andrew Ginsburg trains clients privately in the morning, and performs stand-up comedy at night.  The New York City-born author of “Pumping Irony: How to Build Muscle, Lose Weight, and Have the Last Laugh” laughs throughout this episode and says he’s “just another Jewish comedian” but his unique career experience in bodybuilding and personal training is one that he draws upon in stand-up material that audiences love. Andrew currently has four comedy albums available on iTunes, has appeared on Saturday Night Live, The Sopranos and various soap operas and headlines regularly at major NYC comedy clubs. This father of 3 from Connecticut lives each day by the mantra, pursue work you love with fearlessness and humor and offers honest career-centric takeaways in this fun conversation you won't want to miss!
