Jiunta and Stu break down the mindset of elite strength athletes, the balance between performance and longevity, and why so many lifters struggle with their identity outside of the gym. Plus, Stu shares how shifting his focus from lifting to business skyrocketed his success.

If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to truly commit to something—or when it’s time to walk away—this episode is for you.
