Tony Medrano is proof that it's never too late to chase big goals. Starting Ironman at 48, he's since completed five Ironman races while building successful companies as an entrepreneur and CEO. We dive into endurance, business, longevity, and the mindset behind peak performance

A dad, worker, and lifelong student of the grind, navigating long hours, family life, the gym, and jiu-jitsu. This show is about staying in the fight when life gets busy—embracing the setbacks, missing the mats, and using that fire as fuel to keep moving forward. Because discipline isn't about perfection; it's about refusing to let go of who you are.

Turning 40 changed everything.
Dad life, jiu-jitsu, and learning what actually matters in the long run.

This podcast is about slowing things down and getting real about life, training, and priorities. Less ego, less stress, less caring about things that don’t serve you — and more focus on health, family, mindset, and showing up better every day.

Through jiu-jitsu, fitness, and everyday lessons as a father, I’m figuring out how to train smarter, live with intention, and stay present for the people who matter most.

This is about building a stronger body, a clearer mind, and a life that actually feels good — not just looks good.

Strength isn’t built overnight. It’s earned through discipline, hard training, proper conditioning, and staying consistent with nutrition day after day. 💪

Had an awesome conversation with my friend James Tognarini about what it really takes to perform at your best — inside and outside the gym.

Training hard is important, but recovery, mindset, and nutrition are what keep you going long term.

In this episode, I talk about a recent jiu jitsu session that felt completely normal — until the next day when my knee had other plans.

No major injury, just one of those moments that reminds you how important recovery really is, especially as you get older.

I get into the reality of training close to 40, balancing pushing yourself while also knowing when to slow down, and why staying consistent matters more than going all out.

If you train, compete, or just try to stay active while managing life, work, and family — this one will hit home.

This podcast is about what it really means to keep training as you get older—especially as you approach 40 and beyond.

We talk fitness, discipline, and the mindset it takes to stay consistent when recovery becomes just as important as the workout itself. From strength training to jiu-jitsu, to the everyday challenges of balancing life, work, and performance—this is the real side of training that most people don’t talk about.

No ego. No hype. Just honest conversations about pushing your body, respecting recovery, and learning how to train smarter so you can keep going for the long run.

If you're trying to stay fit, stay sharp, and stay in the game as the years go on—this is for you.

Training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in your 40s hits different. It’s less about ego and more about longevity—training smarter, recovering better, and showing up consistently. In this episode, we break down the real challenges, mindset shifts, and lessons that come with staying on the mats while balancing life, work, and everything in between.

In this episode, we talk about the life and legacy of Chuck Norris — from his roots as a world champion martial artist to becoming a Hollywood icon and one of the internet’s biggest legends.
