He served 10 years at SEAL Teams with SEAL Team Five, deploying to Iraq and the United Arab Emirates, after which he helped develop the Combatives Instructor Course to train SEALs how to lead training for their own platoons. He spent time in Denmark training Danish Frogmen, and shortly after launched his own swimwear line with 2-time ESPY award-winning adaptive athlete Kyle Maynard called Sunga Life. He even spent time working with friend of the show (and former #156 guest) Rudy Reyes over at Force Blue, developing a community of veterans to help aid in the protection of our planet's marine resources.  Since then, he's been busy - he appeared on Mike Tyson's podcast, worked with Jake Paul in his Boxing Bullies initiative, and even appeared on a South Korean game show (yes, really) called 'Iron Squad 3.' So what's it like spinning up an athletic apparel company after serving in SEAL teams? How did Jeff (and his fellow Special Forces crew) fare against the best of the best in South Korea? And most importantly - who's going to win that Jake Paul versus Mike Tyson fight in November?  ---------- Support Jeff Gum -  Website - https://www.sungalife.com/ IG - https://www.instagram.com/jeffgum/?hl=en ---------- Sponsors:  Beam Take advantage of Beam's biggest sale of the year and get up to 40% off for a limited time when you go to https://www.shopbeam.com/MIKEDROP and use promo code MIKEDROP at checkout! ---------- Lumen Head to https://www.lumen.me/MIKEDROP for 15% off your purchase! ---------- Fueled by TeamDog | www.mikeritlandco.com | @Teamdog.pet ALL THINGS MIKE RITLAND: SHOP for Fueled By Team Dog Performance Dog Food, Treats, Apparel, Accessories, and Protection dogs - MikeRitlandCo.com - https://www.MikeRitlandCo.com Team Dog Online dog training - TeamDog.pet - https://www.TeamDog.pet Learn more about your ad choices.

(3:25) • I can't just go and have a normal job. I need the biggest challenge in order to be fulfilled. What's the hardest thing I could do? And I became obsessed with hell week. I almost wanted to do hell week more than be a SEAL (16:55) • I told everyone I wanted to be a SEAL, and then, a year and a half later, 9-11 happened and it just reaffirmed it 100-fold. I don't want to go be a Navy SEAL to do hell week, and learn how to skydive and scuba dive, and blow stuff up and shoot guns, all these really bad-ass things. I wanted to do it to hunt the most evil people in the word, and make sure 9-11 never happens again. (17:33) • I will never, ever quit. (34:43) • [Kyle Maynard –has no arms or legs - and I] start talking. We become friends. We start hanging out a lot. I start bringing him in to speak to my students and motivate them. We traveled around the world together. I took him diving at the Great Barrier Reef, climbed the highest mountain in Australia and went to 20-plus countries with him. (70:07) • I was having major [back] issues. Even trying to do basic workouts it would pop and go out on me. I went to Columbia to the bio accelerator, and they did stem cells in my spine. I'm like a new person after that. (74:40) • I swam Alcatraz, and swam it in one of my Sungas. That was the coldest swim I've done. (94:55) • I'm a board member for the Adaptive Training Foundation in Dallas, helping with athletes. After 9 weeks of training - spiritual, mental, physical. Literally, they perform miracles there.  They've been 20-30 years and haven't walked, and at the end of 9 weeks they're walking. (97:06) • I never felt so much love and gratitude for everyone who's been in my life. Of all the people I could've been born to and I was born to my mom. All the siblings I could've had, and I had my sister and my brother. It was hard to think of my dad and brother without being sad because I miss them so much, but it made be so unbelievably grateful for the time I had with them. (102:10)

È famoso per essere stato il primo uomo con quadrupla amputazione ad arrivare in cima al Kilimangiaro e al monte Aconcagua senza l'aiuto di protesi. “Per vedere tutto davvero con chiarezza non devo pensare a cosa mi rende felice, ma a cosa mi fa sentire beato.” Kyle Maynard intevistato da Tim Ferris

¿Conoces a Kyle Maynard? Un chico que nació sin manos y sin pies y que ha logrado ser campeón de lucha libre y subir la cima de los montes Aconcagua y Kilimanjaro sin ayuda de sus prótesis.En este podcast te cuento las 3 lecciones que puedo sacar de esta historia, merece la pena que dediques 5 minutos a escucharlo.Recuerda descargar tu KIT EMPRENDEDOR desde www.albertopujolcruz.com/gratis

The literal word for sin means "to untie", and when we understand that in its fullness there is tremendous freedom; plus the power of your second brain, Tony Robbins on transformational vocabulary, one Psalm for when you are feeling overwhelmed, Paul on the power of music, letting your future self make all your decisions, Joyce Meyer on why no one knows her real name and how she overcame ultimate abuse, Kyle Maynard on "It's not what I can do; it's what I will do"; one missionary on overcoming addiction, how taking all the money from the rich would not change a thing, why the media is mostly corrupt, and what Jesus meant by 'love thy neighbor'.

Kyle is known for becoming the first quadruple amputee to reach the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Aconcagua without the aid of prosthetics. He has done some amazing things with his life, and overcoming the odds. Derek explores what is next for Kyle.

Kyle Maynard had a dream to be a professional athlete. Born with a condition called congenital amputation that left him without arms or legs, he never stopped pursuing his dream. He became a champion wrestler at State level, an MMA fighter, opened his CrossFit gym, and climbed some of the world's tallest mountains including Killamanjaro, becoming the first quadruple amputee to do it without assistance. This is a fantastic show about an inspirational guy who is challenging the excuses we tell ourselves.   SHOW NOTES When people ask Kyle what he does, how does he like to reply? His Dad was a military man; did this background have an impact on Kyle's character growing up? What does Kyle know about the day he was born when his parents discovered his condition? Did Kyle ever fall into the comparison trap growing up? What was his Mum's dialogue when he started to feel sorry for himself or started to compare? From a very early age, Kyle said no to prosthetics - why was that? Kyle's Grandmother said, "God doesn't make mistakes." How has that influenced his beliefs? From the book "God Made You Like This For A Reason." Has Kyle worked out the reason? Kyle lost his first 35 wrestling matches in a row before he won. How did that first win change his identity? What was the greatest fear he had to face with Mt Kilimanjaro? How Kyle carried the ashes of Corey Johnson to the top of Kilimanjaro at the request of his mother. "Your dreams could be a gateway to another dream; you could not have foreseen." Is that his journey? The 3 feet philosophy "not dead can't quit." If Kyle could meet with the great Marcus Aurelius and ask him a question, what would he ask? Kyle admires people who challenge assumptions. What is the last assumption he challenged? One of the few real treasures Kyle keeps is a bible from his grandparents. What's the real significance of that bible? What's the dialogue in his mind when he starts making excuses today? Does he ever think, "wait what I am doing, I'm the no excuses guy, and I'm making excuses?" Kyle became depressed when he started to do keynote speaking. How dark did it get? Bruce Lee - it's not the daily increase but the daily decrease, hack away the nonessentials. What is it about the Comanche people and even his Mum's ancestors the Cherokee people that fascinate him? Kyle would horse ride at his Uncle Matt's in Michigan. How has he adapted to communicate with the horse? His family taught him to never quit in the middle of a task once he starts. Did that play on his mind on Kilimanjaro? Excuses give us a reason to explain to other people why we are too weak to deal with a particular problem, regardless of the size or importance of the matter.   LINKS Kyle Maynard website http://kyle-maynard.com   The Mojo Radio Show Patreon page https://www.patreon.com/themojoradioshowpodcast   Top 10 Cowbell songs of all time https://ultimateclassicrock.com/cowbell-songs/   The Mojo Radio Show website themojoradioshow.com   The Mojo Radio Show on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheMojoRadioShowPodcast/   The Mojo Radio Show on Twitter https://twitter.com/tmrspod   The Mojo Radio Show copyright Gary Bertwistle & Darren Robertson   Products or companies we discuss are not paid endorsements.

Kyle Maynard is a motivational speaker, bestselling author, entrepreneur, and ESPY award-winning mixed martial arts athlete, known for becoming the first quadruple amputee to reach the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Aconcagua without the aid of prosthetics. Oprah Winfrey called Kyle “one of the most inspiring young men you will ever hear about.” Arnold Schwarzenegger described him as “the real deal,” “a champion human,” and “one of the most inspiring people” he’s ever met. Even the great Wayne Gretzky has spoken of Kyle’s “greatness.” Despite being born with a rare condition known as congenital amputation, that has left him with arms that end at the elbows and legs that end near his knees, he learned early on with the support of his family, to live life independently and without prosthetics. Kyle thrives on physical challenges and following a few rough middle school football seasons; he went on to become a champion wrestler, CrossFit Certified Instructor and gym owner, competitive MMA/Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighter, world record-setting weightlifter, and skilled mountaineer. In 2012, Kyle became the first quadruple amputee to climb – actually bearcrawl – the 19,340 feet to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro without the aid of prosthetics. His 10-day ascent was widely covered by the press, followed on social media, and raised money and awareness for wounded veterans as well as Tanzanian schoolchildren. Upon his return, Kyle won his second ESPY (Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly) award for Best Male Athlete with a Disability. Four years later, he reached the summit of Argentina’s breathtakingly beautiful and sometimes deadly Mount Aconcagua – the highest peak in both the Western and Southern Hemispheres, standing at 22,838 feet. Following that epic summit, Nike featured Kyle in the powerful commercial “Unlimited Will,” which debuted globally during the 2016 Olympics, was viewed by millions around the world – and was part of the series that AdWeek named the most memorable of all commercials during the 2016 Olympics. Kyle has not let his success be defined by anything or anyone but himself. He has lived his life striving to do more, learn more, push harder, go further—and to inspire others to do the same by sharing his story and living by example. Though he tailors his speeches to his audience, his messages are centered on building a life driven by purpose and meaning, the importance of the undying pursuit of dreams, and the belief that no obstacle is too great and nothing in their lives can keep them from accomplishing their goals.

So, 4 days and a phone call later, Kyle called in to chat! Topics discussed with Kyle and the team include: - Horrible mispronunciation of words - What is "Mastery"? - Being free in a world full of limitations and social normalities. - Finding power in the unknown.

Know your limits, but never stop trying to break them." -Kyle Maynard What if I told you that you could do anything, be anything you wanted?   You could be a bestselling author, a motivational speaker, an entrepreneur.  Physically, you could climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, practice MMA and even open up a CrossFit gym.  Your accomplishments could actually be so staggering that Oprah Winfrey calls you “one of the most inspiring young men you will ever hear about.  Arnold Schwarzenegger calls you a “champion human.” Can you imagine having that success? Now, imagine being born as a quadruple amputee - arms that end at your elbows and legs that end at the knees.  You soon realize you're not built like many of the other kids in school. Routine acts like putting on socks can take 45 minutes.   Can you imagine that start? What if I told you that these two people were the same, Kyle Maynard.   Kyle is one of the most inspirational and impressive human beings that I've had the pleasure of meeting.  He has conquered obstacles that very few of us can relate to and has racked up a list of accomplishments that are mind-boggling.   Despite this, Kyle stays humble, admitting that he has a long way to go in his personal development journey.  In fact, he refers to his “disability” as the “best thing to ever happen to him.” Can you imagine having that perspective? One reason for Kyle's success is his willingness to put himself out there - to continue to push the boundaries that he and others around him believe are possible.  As Teddy Roosevelt once noted in a famous speech, Kyle is very much the “man in the arena”. "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." I fundamentally believe that we all have greatness within us and that it's part of our duty, our obligation to unlock it.  Despite a difficult obstacle in front of him, Kyle has succeeded in unlocking his greatness - and is continuing to push the limits.

When 450 entrepreneurs and wave makers get together in one room, magic happens. That's the only way I can accurately describe my week at The Summit of Greatness in Columbus, OH. The Summit was organized by the one and only Lewis Howes, NYT best-selling author and podcaster of The School of Greatness. This last minute trip turned into a life changing experience that I will never forget. I met people with dreams bigger than mine that challenged me to think bigger and love who I am. The conference featured incredible speakers Stacy London, Matthew Hussey, Kyle Maynard, and many more. On this #SoloCast, I share with you a few take aways from my favorite speakers , my overall big personal takeaway and a pretty big challenge for you! Grab a pen and paper because it's about to get real!

Lewis Howes is great. He has achieved Olympic level successful in many areas of his life and today with the launch of his brand new book, The School of Greatness, he adds Bestselling Author to the list. On this episode, I ask Lewis what it takes to be great. Without hesitation, Lewis says that it all starts with a vision. You have to visualize what it is you really want. You have to dream it. Lewis says that before you can achieve greatness and success you have to understand what greatness and success looks like for you. Take a notepad and a pen, go out into nature, lay there in silence and write down what your perfect day would look like. Lewis says that everyone faces some type adversity in their life, but the ones who achieve greatness figure out a way to use the adversity to their advantage. We discuss some amazing examples of people who have achieved greatness after adversity, like Kyle Maynard. I hope you enjoy today's episode as much as I did. I know you can be great.
