He could barely move at 15 and now he's redefining strength. When doctors told Zac Spinosa he might never train again, he refused to accept it. Diagnosed with Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis and Macrophage Activation Syndrome, he refused to let that be the end of his story. Instead, he built Forge Fitness, a community where disability doesn't mean limitation and pain becomes power. In this episode of Take a Pain Check, Zac opens up about hitting rock bottom and choosing to fight back, building a gym that truly includes people with chronic illness, the mindset shift that changed everything, and what strength really means when your body is working against you. If you've ever been told you can't, this episode will make you believe you can.

He sees tariff headaches continuing until more trade deals are ironed out. Jim also turns to the investment front and explains how A.I. has done a lot of the heavy lifting in the SPX.
