You heard of just keep swimming? I got one even better…KEEP MOVING FORWARD! I had the great opportunity to sit down with one of my great friends, Ryan Li, as he takes us through the journey of how he became so passionate in the weight lifting space. After suffering injury after injury, he found his calling. Ryan continues to take on life’s challenges and works every day to become the Highest Version of himself by using the motto “Keep Moving Forward”. Dive into this conversation as we discuss both the importance of physical and mental wellness.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
