After some advice on running for beginners, I introduce our guest for this week: Former MLB pitcher Kevin Jepsen. (6:42) He talks about the state of baseball and the changes due to COVID-19, as the shortened 60-game season is set to finally start later this month.

Jepsen also discusses his career (2008-2018) as a pro baseball player, coming out of the bullpen for the Angels, Twins, Rays, and Rangers, What are the fitness routines for professional athletes? We chat about staying fit on and off the field, giving motivation to all of us, no matter how athletic we are.

Jepsen and former teammates also created a new outdoor recreation game called CupCheck. As CEO, he explains how you play it, how you can get it, and how it's helping raise awareness about testicular cancer.
