Your biggest comeback can start this week.
I rebuilt my health and fitness in my 50s—losing nearly 80 pounds, getting back to the gym, and running my first marathon at age 58. Now, at 61, I'm stronger than I've ever been.
Along the way, I’ve spent years studying nutrition, training, and metabolic health—and testing what actually works through relentless n=1 experimentation.
Today, I serve as a health coach within the nation’s leading heart health telemedicine practice. In addition, I reach more than 60,000 people each week through my email and social platforms, sharing practical lessons on building lasting health.
About Chris
I’m Chris Cornell, a writer and health coach at Ovadia Heart Health. At 51, I weighed 278 pounds and was watching my health steadily decline.
Over the past eight years, I’ve immersed myself in the study of nutrition, strength and cardiovascular training, and metabolic health—while running constant n=1 experiments on myself to separate what sounds good from what actually works.
Today, I work with people across the country to help them rebuild strength, restore metabolic health, and create sustainable routines—guided by mindset, meaningful metrics, and steady, repeatable progress.
Work With Me
I am an SMHP-accredited Metabolic Health Practitioner and a Primal Health Coach Institute certified Master Health Coach, but I only offer coaching as part of the clinical team at the Ovadia Heart Health telemedicine practice. If you're looking for high-touch support with nutrition, labs, strength, and long-term strategy, I’d be honored to help—as part of the team.
To work with me as a health coach, become a patient at Ovadia Heart Health.
