We sat down with Jose Rojas, a Marine Corps veteran, exercise science professor, and longtime friend of the show. The conversation started with his decision to join the Marines, what boot camp and deployments were actually like, and the difference between what people imagine combat to be and what it really feels like. We also talked about stress, leadership in war, how soldiers process violence, and why those experiences can completely change the way you handle everyday problems back home. Jose also shared the path that took him from infantry to becoming a researcher and professor in exercise science. This is part one of our conversation, and it sets the stage for part two where we get deeper into the science behind training, performance, and health.
