Listen Later

Meet Ryan DeLuca: He's the founder of Bodybuilding.com, reigning Idaho champion of Nintendo, and presently the co-founder of Black Box VR.

Ryan was still in high school when he started selling fitness advice online. At 20 years old he founded Bodybuilding.com in his garage. He knew he was onto something big, but did he know he’d be leading the world’s largest health and fitness e-commerce website for the next 17 years?

Under Ryan’s leadership, the company skyrocketed to nearly $500,000,000 in annual revenue before he stepped down as CEO in 2015. Ryan was temporarily retired for only six months before BlackBox VR was born, merging his continued passions of technology and fitness to help people transform their lives.

Tune in to hear Ryan’s story, his thoughts on the future of fitness, and his recommendations for success.
