This conversation opened up my eyes big time.  Most will call this Paranoid, but the few call it being well prepared

This episode was all about being aware of your surroundings and making sure you and your family are safe 100% of the time.  Ivan is a very respected practitioner in hand to hand combat , knife combat and a great instructor at the range.   We went through a lot of things that one can do for their house to be better protected and also things to do and be aware of out in public. He tried to generalize for majority of the public and I wanted to try and get to the people that think nothing will happen to them or are unaware of proper cover and conceal.

You may be someone who already knows what to do, but I encourage you to listen and maybe you can pull something out of this conversation to add to your daily routine..

Follow Ground Shark Coffee Co on Instagram and check out there latest roasts and Merchandise. - Click Here - 

CLICK HERE to GET  their Special Edition Black Belt roast out. Limited Supply so get it while you can. 

My recommendation is the popular Blue Belt (Medium Roast). 

Stop buying crap coffee and get on board with Ground Shark Coffee co.  If you think those high volume coffee producers care about your coffee, your wrong.  Nick and his crew is producing some great tasting roasts out of the Colorado Area.  Since Nick is part of the Jiu Jitsu community it is an answer to how he named his roasts. White belt being a light roast and all the way to Brown belt being an Espresso Roast.   Not only do they put out some amazing coffee, they have have expanded into the meat rub business with their Game rub, Beef Rub and Pork and Poultry Rub.

For only being 2 years in the business, they have nailed down the flavors of how a good cup of coffee should taste.

When I discovered Kelly's Page on Instagram, I was instantly fascinated by all of the cool looking tools she uses for working out. Most are unconventional type tools and great for small spaces. As you can see that she does most of her videos with in a very condensed space.

Kelly loves to teach others all about Mace/Gade and Indian Clubs and is very knowledgeable as a Personal Trainer so I encourage anyone to message her and learn all about the tools she uses to train with.

All the way from Yorkshire, UK you will find this man training in "The Shed of Doom".   Ian is very well known in the Catch world and is fortunate enough to be able to travel over to Wigan and train at the Original Snake Pit.  Surprisingly wrestling wasn't his first combat sport, he is also a 3X Thai Boxing champ and Black belt in Jiu Jitsu. 

You can find find most of his content on Instagram......  Click Here to check his content out.

Daniel is a Roger Gracie Blackbelt and well known for his Guillotine Game. ADCC, Polaris, EBI, and Quintet Vet.  I had him on to talk about his wild ways of training especially for grip strength. I always find that I add his stuff to my work outs to help me out in grappling strength.

Be on the look out for some content he is putting out for Grip Strength for Grappling

We talked about a project he did while traveling Scotland called "Stones and Strangles". He had a mission to find these epic stones that are well known in Scotland and also had time to grapple.. Click Here to check out the mini series. 

He also has his own podcast and I recommend listening to his interview with Kurt Osiander.

Everyone is a statistic, but what if you were on the high percentage of the failing spectrum and you had to flip the switch to overcome the odds?  Listening to Mr. Anthony Trucks story is exactly that. The cards were stacked against him and he had to fight and drive on in order to get to where he is now. Being a foster kid and in the system in Contra Costa County to becoming a savage linebacker in the NFL. That wasn't it though, listen in on his story to hear what happened after his NFL life and how he became very strong minded from his younger years to now. 

One Highlight I wanted to share on video is his story when he went to Oregon and going against Oklahoma in his last bowl game in college. He had a huge strip and fumble recovery at the goal line against no other than Adrian Peterson..... Click Here to Check it Out

Jake Shannon and I talked about it all, because this man has many avenues to talk about. People who grapple know him as the man who has studied the most about Catch Wrestling straight from Karl Gotch and Billy Robinson and doing his best to keep it pure and true to its roots.  Unconventional Athletes know him as the man who brought the Steel Mace to America in a time when kettle bells were the big movement. If you love books... Well you can find some of his books he has written. From Economics to catch wrestling, to politics. The shorter list is, What does this man not do?

 Biggest take away for me was for him entrepreneurship is less risky than a single job.. That stuck with me , because I never really thought about it in a sense of having many fires going and knowing when to tend to each fire when necessary. If all you have is one fire and it goes out, What do you do?

He also mentioned once you become familiar with entrepreneurship, you learn how to make money anywhere. There is a good percentage of us that fall into that 1 secure job to give us our income for 40+ years. But the way Jake thinks is amazing with all of his previous and current endeavors. It really opened my eyes to much more in this world and what you can do to enjoy the things you do and live the life you wanted making money with the things you love.

This episode was great to pick his brain and get to know this man with many ventures... After this episode check out what he is doing currently with some of his business' that I highly recommend. Also if your looking for other Catch Wrestlers, he named about 10+ in this episode and has connections pretty much anywhere to train and learn the Old School Way.

This was our conversation before we got started with the show. Get a feel of the positive energy and see how this conversation ended up becoming a 2 hour episode.  This man has so much insightful things to talk about when it comes to the body and its mechanics. His mindset is incredible and I'm glad I get to share his story with all of you.

There is a reason why this episode was 2 hours long plus a bonus episode of Emre and I talking before the episode.

He is a super genuine guy and had so much to discuss. I can see why customer service is so great at his company. He sets the high standard to keep people happy with his passion and product.   What is this Gripedo you ask?  Well it is one piece of equipment that can help out with tennis elbow and also improve your grip by activating the fingers and more of a stretched out position.  We are so used to gripping dumbbells and barbells at the gym and that only works a little bit of your forearm and hands. But put your hand on  one of these and find out how healthy your grip and hands can become.

If you check out his Instagram page, you will see that his invention has made across all major sport platforms.  His main focus with this tool is for the Grapplers of the world, since he was a high level Judoka. I encourage everyone who has forearm problems and also needs to work on grip, this is the answer to most problems.

Emre Studied Biomedical Engineering and has even written a book called, Strength Revolution: Unconventional Guide to Strength and Conditioning.
