In this episode of the Jason Khalipa Podcast, Jason dives into what it’s been like working with MMA legend Daniel Cormier, who recently started the TRAIN HARD 45-Day Challenge.
Plus, the Home Team shares how natural disasters in Texas impacted the community, Jason's next adventure goal (yes, it involves ice and climbing), and a little brain science.
They wrap up with a Q&A covering active lifestyles, grounding vs. gym time, and how to reduce frustration while learning something new.
