148. Rewiring Your Body (and Brain) with the Jukestir: A New Era of Fitness with Brad Evans


Listen Later

What if your workout did more than build muscle—what if it actually rewired your brain?

Brad Evans, the creator of Jukestir, joins the podcast to talk all about this  unique punching bag that’s changing the way we think about fitness. Originally designed as a fun martial arts tool, Jukestir has evolved into a powerful nervous system training device that’s now used in neurological rehab labs, Rock Steady Boxing programs, and with everyday people of all ages and abilities.

Brad shares the story of how a garage experiment turned into a paradigm-shifting fitness tool that promotes resilience, coordination, and mindfulness, all through unpredictable movement and, yes, fun. Whether you're an MMA fighter, a 70-year-old building balance, or someone who just wants workouts to be less boring, this episode is for you.

In this episode:

  • Why most fitness approaches are “outside-in” and how Jukestir flips the script
  • The surprising mental and emotional benefits of missing your target
  • How training the nervous system improves speed, reaction time, and stress tolerance
  • Using Jukestir for fall prevention, Parkinson’s support, and mindfulness
  • The power of play, unpredictability, and movement for all ages
