The Uncrowned

Return of the Monster (Feat. David Ziegler)


Listen Later

Uncrowned Podcast with host Joe Buttice (Uncrowned Coach, formerly JB Motivation) speaks to men who train hard and want their faith to match their discipline. Expect a mix of Christian masculinity, men’s mental health, leadership, and fitness culture, built around structure, accountability, and living like you actually believe what you say you believe.

In this episode, Joe reconnects with returning guest David “Ziegler Monster” Ziegler (creator, gym traveler, and one of the most positive voices in the lifting space). They break down David’s upcoming GuestPass app, built to help lifters find legit gyms while traveling, especially those low-key, independently owned “hidden gem” spots that barely show up online. The conversation moves through hardcore gym culture in Japan, how social media split bodybuilding into “content fitness” vs. true competitive standards, and what it looks like to rebuild momentum after life knocks you flat. They also touch on competing strategy, long-form growth on YouTube, and why building something real takes time, money, and patience.

If you’re a man trying to level up physically without letting your faith and character stay skinny, you’ll fit here.
