In this episode of The Ultimate Assist, John Stockton and Ken Ruettgers go deep with John Welbourn—former NFL lineman, founder of Power Athlete, and host of Power Athlete Radio. Welbourn shares how a decade in pro football shaped his brutal but brilliant approach to strength, discipline, and life after the game. But this conversation isn’t just about the iron—it’s about the gut. Literally. From fecal transplants to microbiome breakthroughs and why most Americans are sleepwalking through their health, Welbourn exposes the uncomfortable truths behind modern wellness, chronic disease, and the lazy path to societal collapse. Equal parts hard science and no-BS football grit, this is one of the most explosive conversations yet.
