What if shin splints were actually a sign of a deeper systemic issues and not just a local tissue problem? In this episode of Unreal Results, I unpack how shin splints and exertional compartment syndromes often stem from more than just overuse or tight calves.  Drawing on my own personal experience and recent work with BUD/S candidates, I share how swelling, fluid stagnation, and the nervous system in the lower leg create what I call functional compartment syndrome and why the key to resolving it often starts far away from the shin itself.In this episode, you'll hear:Why low potassium contributes to swelling, compartment pressure, and muscle tightnessHow to recognize when “shin splints” are masking deeper fluid or nerve compression issuesHow stress and adrenal drive deplete key minerals like potassium and magnesiumWhy swelling management is the non-negotiable first step in lower-leg recoveryThe connection between electrolyte balance, bone health, and nervous system toneWhether you treat endurance athletes, tactical professionals, or chronic lower-leg pain cases, this episode reframes shin splints as a whole-body problem with a whole-body solution.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Episode 3: Swelling Reduction Protocol That Works Like MagicEpisode 37: Swelling Protocol UpdateEpisode 53: Shin Splints: Beyond Overtraining & Rest - Complete GuideEpisode 79: The Deeper Impact of Plyometrics w/ Matt McInnes WatsonGet the Hy-Lyte Potassium Electrolyte Powder HERE*Learn the LTAP™ In-Person in one of my upcoming courses*This link is an Amazon affiliate link, meaning I earn a commission from any qualifying purchases that you makeConsidering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.

Could you imagine your medical debt being erased? Swiped clean?Start with grit and end with gratitude. That's the pulse of this conversation with Bear Handlon—Yale linebacker turned Navy SEAL officer turned founder of Born Primitive—who built a $100M brand from a garage while shouldering rucks, rewiring his life around service, and refusing to cut corners when it mattered most.We dig into the selection moments that strip away ego—why BUD/S graduates tend to be the ones who want the job, not the title—and map those lessons onto entrepreneurship without the Instagram gloss. Bear shares how he and his then‑wife sold at CrossFit events for years, doubled revenue eight straight times, and still chose product integrity over speed: delaying launches, iterating through double‑digit prototypes, and renting a Black Hawk to fast‑rope in full kit to test a boot's abrasion and outsole noise. You'll hear how the footwear bet changed the ceiling, why Born Primitive moved credibly into outdoor and tactical with real subject matter experts, and how the brand kept its spine when culture wars tried to bend it.Then we go to the point: using a company as a force multiplier for good. Last year, Bear routed four days of sales to wipe roughly $11 million in veteran medical debt—5,800 people who got certified letters before Christmas. The calls back were raw: single parents with garnished wages, a Marine reconsidering suicide who checked into rehab after his bill vanished. This year, alongside Black Rifle Coffee, the mission is bigger: Operation Debt of Gratitude aims to reach $25 million and bring the VA and other brands into a durable solution. It's not a promo. It's direct relief, dollar for dollar, with stories that make the stakes real.Along the way, Bear opens up about fatherhood, faith, and finding joy in the simple—letters to his daughter, popcorn on the couch, and choosing presence over noise. If you care about building something that lasts, gear that's earned not hyped, and helping veterans in a way that actually changes lives, this one hits. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs the push, and if you're moved, support Operation Debt of Gratitude at Born Primitive and Black Rifle Coffee between Nov 7–11.

Polish-American man Leo Gerstenzang is credited with inventing the humble cotton bud in the 1920s, an item which has since gone on to be used for many different purposes, having originally been thought up as a baby hygiene product.Yougov research from 2019 found that 62% of Brits use cotton buds to clean their ears, and 22% of us only use them for that purpose. That's particularly true for men, given women are more likely to use them for touching up nail polish mistakes, or applying make up.  But you may well have heard warnings that cotton buds can be bad for you. 2019 also saw the unlikely case of a man who developed a severe bacterial infection, which sprread to the lining of his brain, after the tip of a cotton bud got stuck inside his ear. He ended up having a seizure and had to be treated at University Hostpital Coventry, according to Livescience.com. How can I clean my ears then? Are there any safe ways?

The ocean doesn't negotiate, and neither does life when your plan breaks. We sit down with Chris, who trained for the SEAL pipeline, finished Hell Week, survived pool comp, and then watched a herniated back end the path at third phase. What follows isn't a sad ending; it's a hard pivot. He walks us through the mental frameworks that kept him from quitting—monking out, removing distractions, breaking big tasks into fives, and resetting after every small win—and how those same tools helped him rebuild a new mission.We unpack BUD/S beyond the myth: why boot camp deconditions you, how prep school rebuilds you, why the thermal core pill matters, and what calm-under-stress really looks like when an instructor is tearing your rig apart underwater. The hardest hit wasn't logs or the cold; it was seeing a best friend ring the bell in the dark. From there, we follow his transition to college and a technical role in global infrastructure, and the long, honest work of finding purpose without a trident.That search forged Project Linear, a veteran-owned performance brand designed with military, law enforcement, first responders, and elite CrossFit athletes. Chris breaks down the details: low-to-no compression mesh liners that don't choke your stride, two-inch hems that glide instead of band, anti-odor and antimicrobial fibers derived from volcanic ash, chafe-free seams for body armor, and ethical, certified manufacturing. No hype, no shortcuts—just gear that holds up under plates, breaching, rucks, and long trail runs. Instead of pouring cash into ads, he outfits 220-mile mountain events for veteran suicide awareness and supports the Navy SEAL Foundation, keeping the focus on community and the quiet professional.If you're rebuilding after a setback, training for something hard, or just tired of apparel that fails under real use, this conversation hits home.

From SEAL to Studio: The Art of Grit with Justin Hughes In this week's episode of the Team Never Quit Podcast, Marcus, Melanie, and Hunter sit down with Justin Hughes — former Navy SEAL turned professional oil painter — whose journey from the battlefield to the art studio embodies the essence of transformation, discipline, and creative courage. Based out of Charleston, South Carolina, Justin has redefined what it means to serve and to create. As a self-taught representational artist, he channels the lessons, emotions, and intensity of his time in the SEAL Teams into his paintings, merging the warrior spirit with the sensitivity of the fine arts. His mission is to bridge two seemingly distant worlds — the world of combat and the world of creativity — revealing that both demand vision, perseverance, and heart. Listeners will hear how Justin's childhood in Southeast Asia, and a fateful encounter with Lone Survivor sparked a dream that would change his life forever. His story takes us through the rigors of SEAL training, moments of doubt and triumph, and the eventual transition from military service to artistry — a path shaped by struggle, purpose, and redemption. Through his brushstrokes, Justin explores what it means to be a modern warrior — one who fights not only on the battlefield but also in the soul. Drawing comparisons to the renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci, Hughes uses his art to express the beauty within discipline and the strength found in vulnerability.  In this episode you will hear: • My dad was a Huey pilot. (8:44) • I grew up all over Southeast Asia (9:20) • I was thinking: Whatever is gonna be the hardest thing to do in the military; wherever that realm is, those are the people that want to be in those jobs the most. That's gotta be where my people are at. (14:41) •  One of the biggest misconceptions of BUDs is you can't just show up and not quit. You still have to be a good team guy. You still have to do the work. You gotta be a performer. You gotta be a pro. We're looking for the whole man. (21:05) • For those of you who don't know what pool competency is. It's the hardest single test in BUDs. (37:55) • When I first started painting, I didn't know any artists. I didn't know anything about art. (62:48) • [Melanie] Q: What's your goal with art? A: Just to be better every day. And continue to provide paintings that are meaningful to people. To glorify the Lord through whatever work I'm doing. (74:30) • I'm still saying “Hooyah! like turrets. (75:25) • It takes a lot of bad work. You've gotta be patient with the process. Sometimes a really good thing will look really bad for a long time for a long time before you can polish it up and make it into something beautiful. So… don't quit.

My guest is DJ Shipley, a former Tier 1 operator Navy SEAL and now a top public educator on how to build mental and physical health and reach top-level performance in any endeavor. DJ's life is one marked by extraordinary strivings, wins, setbacks and comebacks that together have shaped his approach to overcoming challenges of all kinds and to daily life. DJ explains a regimen of clear, practical steps and a mental stance that can allow anyone—male, female, young or old—to build extreme resilience of mind and body and to be successful in family and work. We also discuss his experience with new, emerging treatments for addiction, PTSD and depression that many people, not just veterans, are benefiting from. The tools DJ describes to “stack small wins” and to be ultra-intentional about your mindset will be of immense benefit to anyone wishing to achieve the best version of themselves.

What's the “right” frequency for treatment sessions? Once a week, twice a week, three times?In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I unpack one of the most common questions I get from clinicians: how often should you be scheduling your clients? I share why treatment frequency isn't black and white, how precision in your assessment changes how often you actually need to see someone, and why constraints like client goals,  financial realities, and training demands all shape the decision.I walk you through real examples from my current caseload from NFL athletes in season, to post-op patients, to Navy SEAL candidates in the middle of BUD/S training, so you can see how I decide whether to see someone once a month, once a week, or multiple times in a week.If you've ever wondered how to balance science, client needs, and your own bandwidth when planning care, this conversation will give you clarity and confidence.Resources Mentioned In This EpisodeFREE online mini-course, The Missing Link, is now open for enrollment!

In this episode you will hear: • You're gonna make it no matter what happens. You just have to believe. And the Navy doesn't train that into you. (12:58) • In order to make it through BUDS, you gotta believe you can do it. (13:45) • People quit when they don't believe. (16:02) • The job is being miserable, cold, wet, tired. You still have to perform. (18:50) • Hell week is what separates us from the rest of them [other Special Forces]. It gives you a weird mental ability that no other training can give you. (20:03) • Everybody compares themselves to SEALS. SEALS don't compare themselves to anybody else. (20:48) • We have to train so hard that no matter what we do, we're way better at it than anyone else. (24:19) • When we do actually go into combat, combat is easier than the training. 24:09) • My desire was for their best interest [as an instructor]. We're gonna train hard, but we're gonna stick together. You need to know why you're doing what you're doing. (30:00) • You need to be training everybody that is below you to replace you. (33:43) • As the leader, I'll help who needs help. (36:13) • I don't want to talk specific tactics because there's still guys on active duty deploying those tactics. I don't want the enemy to hear it. (49:07) • [Marcus] If you close your eyes and drop underwater, you know how many kicks it takes to get 100 yards. (50:30) • Okay, this is why we've been doing what we're doing. We're getting on the C141, and that night, we're getting in the water and we are diving on these boats. (66:13) • If something happens, it's my fault. If we didn't get there, it's my fault. If we got compromised, it's my fault. I'm not gonna sit there going “it's his fault.” (76:07) • Once we go in the water, it over, that boat is blowing up. (78:55) • There has to be a level of finality to whatever you're doing. If I don't do this correctly, things aren't gonna work out so well.

What he didn't know was how far he'd have to go—how much he'd have to lose—before finally earning the Trident. From getting dropped at BUD/S to guarding terrorists in Guantanamo Bay, John's journey is a masterclass in grit, redemption, and what it means to serve with purpose even when the path doesn't go according to plan. Through multiple Hell Weeks, soul-crushing setbacks, and years of grinding through Navy politics, John fought like hell to get back into SEAL training. And he made it. But what happened after is just as powerful. From sniper to breacher to K9 handler, to a complete reinvention in civilian life—John proves that purpose doesn't end with a uniform. ---------- Heartland Steak Stock up with a custom steak box or grab a grill-ready bundle —either way, you're getting the best.

In This Episode You Will Hear: • I don't think I could beat Marcus at arm wrestling if I can't pick up a bowling ball. (1:58) • You do realize there's a thing called old man strength? (5:53) • [Rob O'Neil] I have a podcast as well, called “The Operator.” We're called The Operator because if you're doing anything, you're an operator. (6:18) • Having a big man to kick your ass and teach you wind a bobbin; you realize there is skill here. (9:59) • When people quit BUDS, it's not because “this is hard”. [It's because] I'm tired of the broken foot.; I'm tired of the shin splints; I'm tired of my dislocated shoulder; I'm tired. (21:20) • In BUDS, one of the biggest problems is eating too much. Like I want 5 cheeseburgers, but we have a 4-mile run afterwards. (26:35) • [Rob] and for everyone that doesn't know, can you explain what a SDV is? (39:20) [Marcus] Imagine a mini submarine and shrink it down. The difference is that a submarine is dry inside, and the SDV is completely full of water. (39:23) • Listen to Marcus discuss the details of being in an SDV for 8 hours. Talk about ultimate torture - If you have a deep freeze in your garage, fill that sucker full of water, crawl in there and sit down for 8 hours. (40:32) • The first time I got in there, I was terrified. (45:29) • [Marcus] There's stuff that happens to us out there. Sometimes safety gets in the way of it. (58:49) • [After falling down the mountain during Operation Red Wings] I could hear that stream running. I've got to get me water, but I kept thinking I can't drink out of it, because my buddies are in it. (81:07) • If you want to make God laugh, tell Him what your plan is. (92:04) • [Marcus] Bro, when you saw that son of a bitch's face [Osama Bin Laden], what was the first thing you saw? [Rob O'Neal] I saw his nose. He was skinny, wearing white – tall. (95:22 ) • My nickname was “Nisro” (Navy SEAL Rob O'Neal). When they asked “Who got him?” They go “Nisro,” and they said “Fuck! We're never gonna hear the end of it.” (97:30) Support Robert:   - IG: mchooyah - Host of The Operator Podcast Support TNQ   - IG: team_neverquit , marcusluttrell , melanieluttrell , huntero13   -  https://www.patreon.com/teamneverquit Sponsors:   - dripdrop.com/TNQ    -  cargurus.com/TNQ    - armslist.com/TNQ   - partnersinbuilding.com - Navyfederal.org        -    - You can find Cremo's new line of antiperspirants and deodorants at Target or Target.com    - WARFARE IN THEATERS APRIL 11th Watch Trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JER0Fkyy3tw First Look Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3DWuqiAUKg&t=3s    -   - PXGapparel.com/TNQ   - bruntworkwear.com/TNQ    - Selectquote.com/TNQ    - Groundnews.com/TNQ    - You can find Cremo's new line of antiperspirants and deodorants at Target or Target.com    - shipsticks.com/TNQ    - Robinhood.com/gold    - strawberry.me/TNQ    - stopboxusa.com {TNQ}    - ghostbed.com/TNQ [TNQ]   -  kalshi.com/TNQ   -  joinbilt.com/TNQ    - Tonal.com [TNQ]   - greenlight.com/TNQ   - PDSDebt.com/TNQ   - drinkAG1.com/TNQ   - Shadyrays.com [TNQ]   - qualialife.com/TNQ [TNQ]   - Hims.com/TNQ   - Shopify.com/TNQ   - Aura.com/TNQ   - Policygenius.com   - TAKELEAN.com [TNQ]   - usejoymode.com [TNQ]
