Jesse Itzler is a serial entrepreneur, ultra runner, and general seeker of adventure. On the show we talk about adventurous parenting, addiction to newness, and mental toughness. His background is amazing and diverse and to spare the clickbait(y) descriptions about what this guy has accomplished, I'd recommend you just listen to the show to find out who he really is first, then go google the crap out of him! Thanks for listening.
Red has been coming along with her training. Today we talk about adding a lot more vertical to the training plan. She has a few questions about her training that we dive into including, "Should I use a tire pull for resistance training?" It was a fun show and we hope you enjoy!
