019 | Pain, Accountability & Progress: The Real Journey to Sustainable Fitness Ft. Ryan Tripp 1:07:11

27 days ago1:07:11

1:07:11

In this episode, I sat down with Ryan Tripp to talk about something way bigger than just training plans or macros — we dug into the real stuff that holds most guys back. Ryan’s story started with a health scare that forced him to take control of his life. Now he’s a coach helping others do the same. We talked about the mental side of change, why accountability matters way more than motivation, and how social pressure and self-doubt can quietly derail progress. If you’ve been stuck in a cycle of false starts, struggling to stay consistent, or just trying to figure out what actually works long-term — this one’s going to hit home.

36:35

In this episode, I sat down with Jaden Bienvenue — a guy who went offensive lineman and 280lbs to three years later running 300 miles across the state of Arizona. No coaches, no special treatment… just grit and relentless self-belief. This is part 2 of the interview with Jaden where he specifically dives into his experience in the Arizona Monster 300 as one of the first ever athletes to complete the race. Jaden is in the pursuit of finding what his true physical limits and while for most people their mind stops them from ever running a marathon, he is still in pursuit of what his limits are. If you’ve ever wondered how far your body and mind can go… this is one of those episodes that’ll stick with you.
