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.

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.
