Eric Bugenhagen is a dynamic powerhouse whose electrifying journey has taken him from dominating the wrestling mats as a Wisconsin state champion to captivating audiences worldwide in WWE and igniting the fitness community on YouTube with his extraordinary feats of strength (and humor). A Wisconsin native, Bugenhagen carved his niche early on as a formidable wrestler, becoming a Wisconsin state wrestling champion. His prowess on the mat led him to the University of Wisconsin, where he not only competed for the Wisconsin Badgers Wrestling team but also served as its captain, achieving a notable rank of #4 in the country at one point. After his competitive days on the mat concluded, Bugenhagen transitioned into a vital role behind the scenes as a strength coach for the Wisconsin Badgers wrestling team for two years, imparting his knowledge and expertise to upcoming athletes. Expanding his impact in the realm of strength and conditioning, Bugenhagen took his talents to NX Level, a renowned training facility where he worked with professional athletes, including the likes of JJ Watt. He also served as the strength coach for Brookfield Academy athletics, further establishing his reputation in sports performance training. Bugenhagen's athletic career took an exciting turn when he joined WWE, where he was featured weekly on SmackDown in 2021. Unfortunately, his promising trajectory in professional wrestling was interrupted by a significant injury, a blown patellar tendon, which sidelined him from in-ring competition.

Chris McGrail is a 45-year-old former athlete from Staten Island, New York, with a diverse background in sports and a distinguished military career. He found his athletic calling in track and field, becoming a city champion in long jump and triple jump. McGrail's athletic journey led him to the United States Military Academy at West Point after high school, where an injury diverted his path from track to powerlifting. Graduating from West Point with degrees in Engineering Management and Mechanical Engineering, McGrail also became a certified Army Master Fitness Trainer. His military service took him to Fort Benning and into the heart of combat during the Iraq invasion in 2003, where his service earned him the Bronze Star and Presidential Unit Citation. The aftermath of war left him with PTSD and severe health challenges, but also fueled his success in powerlifting. With over 20 years as a strength coach and 24 years of competing in powerlifting, McGrail has coached soldiers and elite athletes, achieving significant success as an athlete himself, setting numerous records and winning gold medals. Despite medical setbacks and a warning from a surgeon that he would never lift again, McGrail defied the odds, continuing to compete at high levels and setting ambitious goals. Holding a Master of Science in Sport and Fitness and an MBA, his career includes roles in sports promotion and management, and he is currently the Utah State Chairman for the USPA. McGrail has directed national and world championship powerlifting meets and maintains a limited client roster for training due to his commitments as a father, husband, business owner, and advocate for using powerlifting to overcome PTSD. He is also an executive at a protein supplement company.

In this episode, Matt and Dave discuss kidney function and health (delving into Matt's recent stem cell treatment in Cabo), business, the 70% rule, and much more! Matt Wenning is a three-time world champion powerlifter. He has directed over 6000 troops in strength, conditioning, and wellness for the U.S. Army, including Infantry and Ranger Divisions. He holds a Masters Degree in Biomechanics and a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from Ball State University. Matt grew up in Indiana, raised by a hard-working, middle-class family. His mother was a nurse, and his father was a Marine and truck driver. When he was six years old, Matt was hit by a car going 50 mph, which took a toll on his physical development. After undergoing 12 months of full leg casts and 12 months in a boot, his legs were underdeveloped. Four years later, Matt discovered lifting. It allowed him to see he was capable of anything, despite what he had gone through during recovery from his injuries. Then, when Matt was 13, his father passed away due to cancer; a result of complications from agent orange. That's when he started lifting in competitions. In the beginning, lifting was just a stepping stone to the goal of football. But it became a much larger pathway in his life. Lifting inspired Matt to attain higher education and become a strength coach. He excelled with a 3.9 GPA. He has been an adviser for the NFL, an international speaker for the NSCA, and a contractor for border patrol, airborne divisions, and the pentagon.

Welcome, Jesse! As the Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the DC Defenders and the St. Louis Battlehawks during the XFL's 2022-2023 relaunch, Jesse Ackerman orchestrated simultaneous strength programs leading to triumphant seasons. Notably, the Defenders clinched a championship game appearance, with several players seamlessly transitioning to NFL rosters under his direct guidance. From 2016 to 2020, Jesse served as the Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Atlanta Falcons in the NFL. His integrative approach, blending activation methods, biomechanical analysis, diverse strength modalities, speed development, and sport-specific movement refinement, significantly contributed to the optimal performance of numerous NFL players. A testament to his methods, a 2019 analysis by Weiss and Paarz Medical Malpractice Attorneys revealed the Falcons as the least injured NFL team during Jesse's three-year tenure. "Total Games Lost" decreased by 10%, and "Injured Reserve" by 12%, solidifying his impact. Jesse's commitment to excellence extends beyond the NFL. His tenure as a Performance Coach with the 75th Ranger Regiment 1st Battalion showcased his prowess in preparing soldiers for deployment and bridging physical therapy to performance for those recovering from injury. He also crafted a regeneration manual for rangers deployed in challenging environments. In the collegiate arena from 2007-2015, Jesse's impact reverberated through NCAA Division I Power 5 schools. Notably, he developed the A.R.M. System during this period, initially benefiting quarterbacks and later adapted for law enforcement and military personnel. His versatility as a Football Strength and Conditioning Coach included roles at the University of Florida, The University of Texas, and Iowa State University, where he influenced athletes across multiple sports. Jesse's coaching journey commenced in 2001, leaving an indelible mark at his high school alma mater, Mentor Lake Catholic High School. His inaugural year as Defensive Line Coach culminated in a 2001 OHSAA Division III State Championship. A Willowick, Ohio native, Jesse's collegiate years at John Carroll University saw him excel as an All-America Defensive Lineman and Team Captain. His commitment to education includes a Master's in Exercise Science from California University of Pennsylvania, a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and a Bachelor's in Education from John Carroll University. Beyond accolades, Jesse embraces a holistic training philosophy, advocating for methods beyond traditional strength and conditioning. His dynamic career includes clinic presentations nationwide, reflecting his passion for sharing knowledge. In Winter Garden, FL, Jesse resides with his devoted wife Christine and their son, DC.

He owns Courage Barbell. Having a late start in powerlifting at the age of 27, he rose to be one of the top powerlifters of his day. Chad put up many world-record lifts in amateur and professional powerlifting. At one time, he held the fourth-highest total in history, the highest full meet bench in history, and the fourth-highest squat in history. Chad had a training style that went against the norm, as he was not constrained by the theories that were most popular in the industry.
