He's the most outspoken athlete in the game, and he has the talent to back it up. He's been on more magazines and seen more airtime than anyone else in our industry. You could say he is our only true crossover star. Hunter joined us to discuss Boundless, Steve Austin's Broken Skull, Spartan Ultimate Team Challenge, Million Dollar Mile, and The Spartan Games.

Kevin Bull is an obstacle course racing athlete and an American Ninja Warrior superstar who has appeared on 5 seasons of the show, as well as other competition shows such as Spartan: Ultimate Team Challenge. During the day when he’s not crushing ninja courses he’s the general manager of DojoBoom in Thousand Oaks, CA. And he is also a huge inspiration to the many people involved in CAP, or the Children’s Alopecia Project, an organization that promotes good self esteem in kids who suffer from the hair loss condition that he also shares. What Kevin is perhaps too humble and shy to include in his biography is that he is an absolute badass that approaches every course and obstacle with zero fear or hesitation. He is most famously known for the upside down flip he made on ‘Cannonball Run’ at the 2014 Venice Finals in his first season as a walk-on. Despite his ability to move through just about any ninja obstacle with ease, in our conversation today Kevin and I don’t talk much about the physical side of being an American Ninja Warrior (although we do dive a bit into the different types of training he recommends). Where we do dive deep is how to develop the mental game of focus required to be successful, how to attack obstacles progressively one small step at a time, and the reason why it’s so important to choose obstacles in life before they choose you.

Solomon Harvey’s athletic abilities took him to the finals on two network television shows, American Ninja Warrior and Spartan: Ultimate Team Challenge. He’s now using those talents, along with his martial arts expertise, to grow a new career as a stuntman in the television and film industry.

Adriane was a college athlete in the shot put, discus, hammer, and weight throw, graduating from Ashland University in 2004. She is a 13-time DII All American, with 7 national titles and 6 runner up honors (to her teammate, who was ultimately an Olympian in the hammer). Adriane set DII national records in the discus and indoor and outdoor shot put, and qualified for the Olympic Trials in the shot put in ‘04, ‘08, and ‘12. She was the 13th American woman to throw over 60 feet in the shot. Adriane also has had a stellar career as a Highland Games athlete. She has won five World Championships, and set world records in 28lb weight for height ( or WoB), and the 28lb heavy weight for distance. Adriane also has a long track record as a personal coach. She has coached in many different contexts, from high school, to college, to the Warrior Games. Also the first woman to close the No. 2 Captains of Crush Gripper! Developing as a thrower: You’ve had a long career with strength sports. How did you first get into the strength side of athletics? Track and field? When do you first remember thinking that you were going to be really good at throwing things far? Being a woman in strength sports: Something I know female athletes in strength sports sometimes deal with is how our bodies don’t always fit into the stereotypically feminine frame. One thing that has always struck me about you is how ripped you are, and how unashamed you are about your muscles. I love the picture of you from behind that shows you doing a pull up in your strapless wedding dress! Did you ever have emotional struggles with developing into such a visibly strong woman? Major challenges: You had a stellar college career at Ashland University, which is how I met you. During your last year at Ashland, you experienced a pretty serious challenge that, for a normal human being, would have derailed your road to the Olympic trials. Please tell us about that. Where did/do you find your drive? Mental skills that differentiate the athletes that are able to perform to their potential? How can those skills be developed? Highland Games: I read that you kind of got into it on a whim - some friends invited you to try it out. What was it like to go from a newbie to qualifying for the World Championships the next year? What was the experience of being on Spartan Ultimate Team Challenge like for you? Getting older: Talk a little bit about what your training is like now. How have you adjusted things as you have gotten older? Coaching: I’m curious about Poliquin’s approach; Biosignature practitioner? How do you manage the balance between coaching and training yourself? Is there anything that you would like to promote? @adrisue on Instagram Into the Distance - documentary on Vimeo

Daniel McKim BIO - All American shot putter in college and 15-time national qualifier in five events (I’m guessing weight, hammer, discus, and indoor and outdoor shot put...not javelin…) at DII Northwest Missouri State University. Retired from the Highland Games following a career that lasted over a decade and saw him win five world championships and six national championships, and two world championships in the caber toss,two world team championships, and two world records in light and heavy hammer. Appeared on NBC’s “Spartan: Ultimate Team Challenge” this summer. Active on social media (hilarious videos!!). Also an outspoken believer. Daniel McKim's Youtube and Instagram links Questions that were discussed in this episode included: You are very outspoken about your faith. Tell us about that - how did you come to faith? How has your faith impacted your athletics career? What got you into track and throwing? And what is a Spoofhound? What were some of the highlights for you from throwing in high school and college? What other sports/strength sports have you done? How did you get into highland games after college? You hold many championships - national and world; individual and team. What are some of the highlights from competing as a Highland Games athlete that stick out to you the most? You went pro in 2007 - what was the process like of going from an amateur to a pro? You competed in the Highland Games for over a decade. What have you done to stay active and healthy through that time? I have heard that you can do multiple meets in a month, how many have you done in a short period? Any interesting meet stories? Where is the coolest place you’ve competed? You got to be part of a team of Highland Games athletes on NBC’s “Spartan: Ultimate Team Challenge.” What was that experience like? It looked like a bit more cardio than I like! How does a highland game go? You hold the world record in the light and heavy hammers. Are they your favorite highland games events? What events were the most challenging for you to master? How do (did) you train for Highland games? How often do (did) you do event specific training vs strength training? You retired from the Highland Games this year. Tell us a little about how you came to that decision? You’ve got five boys. Are any of them interested in the sports their dad has competed in? What are your best lifts? We have a lot of people in the group who either have or want to put together a home gym. As a Sorinex rep, what advice do you have for them? Black or grey sweatpants? Just kidding. It’s not even a question. #bss4life Sorinex - how awesome is it to sell equipment

In this episode of Keep Moving Forward I interview adventurer, conservationist, and international speaker, Jonathan Ronzio.   “Decide to act on your dream.” This statement rings true with everything that Jonathan Ronzio has done throughout his entire life. From he and his brother beginning their own event video production company, to Jonathan creating his documentary “Between the Peaks,” to that film growing into his adventure-philanthropy blog and expedition series, “Explore Inspired”, Jonathan simply decides what he wants to do, and goes full force until he achieves that goal.   While clearly an avid entrepreneur, the explorer in him evolved into a competitor in another realm, as well. A mountain climber and boarding expert, Jonathan became intrigued with obstacle course racing and today is named among the elite in this sport. He’s even competed on NBC’s Spartan: Ultimate Team Challenge where he showcased his obstacle expertise to the world.   Being interested in so many seemingly disparate things, Jonathan finds himself wanting to pursue so many different paths, which he does, and encourages others to do the very same. He believes in letting all your worlds coexist, and lives by this mantra every day. We had a great talk together and I hope that you enjoy my discussion with adventuring entrepreneur, Jonathan Ronzio.   If you would like to learn more about him, visit http://jonathanronzio.com/, and follow him on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @JonathanRonzio, and subscribe to his YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/jonathanronzio) , his Vimeo page (https://vimeo.com/ronzio), and follow him on SoundCloud (https://soundcloud.com/jonathanronzio). Furthermore, you can follow Explore Inspired on Facebook and Instagram @ExploreInspired and follow along as Jonathan and his team take on Denali in June 2017 at http://betweenthepeaks.com/ and on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter @BetweenThePeaks.   If you guys enjoy Keep Moving Forward and want to tell me so, I would love for you to leave me a review on iTunes.
