This week, Kyle is joined by former Green Beret and founder of Alpha Country Training & Nutrition, Spencer Lewis. They discuss his life growing up, what led him to join Special Forces, and starting Alpha Country in 2021.<br/><br/>To kick things off, Spencer and Kyle do some pre-workout dry scoops, discuss setting a good example for your kids, and Spencer dives into his childhood.<br/><br/>Next, Spencer shares his early successes in high school sports, how he became motivated to join the Army, and what Ranger school taught him. They discuss facing adversity, and how important is to struggle- it's where you learn the most about yourself. They talk SFAS, team week, and Spencer's deployment to Afghanistan.<br/><br/>To wrap, Spencer explains his desire to start Alpha Country after getting out of the military. They recap their first time meeting in person at a course, reflecting on how far Blu Bearing has come along the way. They review Zimo pouches, give some gifts from our sponsors, and close it out.
