She enjoys being a role model for children, especially for young girls, by showing them how to be strong and confident in our society. Rose also has a strong desire to increase awareness around the topic of mental illness, as it affects not only people close to her, but countless others who are often afraid to seek support due to the negative social stigma associated with it.

An entrepreneur at heart, she started her own personal training business, RoseRunner Sports & Fitness, in 2005.

I grew up playing football as a receiver and ran track. My senior year our 4x400 relay team went to state and made the playoffs in football. Since then, I’ve taken up rock climbing, calisthenics, and love playing intramural football when I can find the time. Competing on ANW has been the most incredible experience, but it comes second to the relationships I have built over the past few years. Ninja Bio, I’m lucky enough to have competed on American Ninja Warrior for the last 3 years. I was a City Finalist my first year, a Vegas Finalist my last two seasons. I fell on Stage 1 the first time, and this year I made it to Stage 2, falling on the Wing Nuts. On American Ninja Warrior: Ninja vs Ninja, I was a part of Thomas Stillings’ team “The Three Wishes” 00:26:00Wolfpack NinjasnoNinja,#LawNinja,Brian BurkhardtBrian Burkhardt, #LawNinjahttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/wolfpackninjapodcast/2018/11/26/jeri-daurelio-army-ninjaFitnesshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/wolfpackninjapodcast/2018/11/26/jeri-daurelio-army-ninja/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/wolfpackninjapodcast/2018/11/26/jeri-daurelio-army-ninjaMon, 26 Nov 2018 17:00:00 GMTJeri D'Aurelio, Army NinjaWhen I'm not on the course, I'm an active duty officer, an attorney in the US Army JAG Corps.

She was home schooled in elementary school and her mom made her read for an hour each day. So, Meagan chose to climb up in a tree with her book to do her reading. For her, it always seemed more fun that way. Meagan started climbing at Aiguille Rock Climbing Center, which is a gym in Orlando. Meagan joined the climbing team at the gym with about 8 other kids.  "Growing up being a gymnast I climbed things all of the time at the gym when I was goofing around." Competitions: Meagan started competing in gymnastics at the age of 5. "In regards to sports, all I really knew starting out was competitions. I love the exhilarating feeling that competitions give you. There are so many things going on, not only around you, but also in your head. You train really hard for that moment when you walk out in front of the crowd and do your thing. I do really love the crowd; they definitely pump me up!" says Meagan. Coming from a competitive gymnastics background, competing in climbing became the natural thing to do.       00:25:00Wolfpack NinjasnoNinja,Fun,Family,Meagan Martin,ObstaclesMeagan started competing in gymnastics at the age of 5.

How does one even start to talk about a man who has experienced so much and led such an original and authentic life? Chris has always followed his own plan, his own beat. At times reticent role-model, at times reluctant leader, there is no arguing that Chris has done more for the art of modern climbing than anyone else. Sure, Chris has climbed the hardest climbs. And it’s funny, even though nowadays there are strong kids at every corner, knocking on Chris’s door, He is still revered as the best climber in the world. For 2 decades, he reigned supreme as the strongest and opened the first 5.15a which he called Realization in Ceuse, France. This is a man who is hungry for life. He is always searching for the next King Line and has been the favorite subject of a great many documentaries and films about extreme difficulty in rock climbing. He has so many undeniably sick ticks in his belt that you start to wonder if he wasn’t put here for the simple purpose of climbing things. Perhaps the purpose of inspiring us. Chris inspires himself. He openly admits that he has been given great gifts of strength that few others posses. Yet he is as humble as they come. He understands that his journey is the same as everyone else’s: climb, fall, climb, fall, send, rest, repeat. Chris is a lifer to the core.  Part ascetic, part hippy, part surfer-dude and all animal, Chris has been a different kind of character. Mostly unapproachable due to his constant position as the center of attention. Chris just had a baby, little Alana Sharma with his beautiful wife Jimena. They live in Spain.

After a dismal debut season so many years ago where he fell on the quad steps, Jamie has come back stronger and stronger every year. Jamie is often considered to be one of the guys who can do the whole American Ninja Warrior course, just like Drew Drechsel, Ian Dory or any of the other top guys. He is a ninja's ninja and one of the legends of our sport. He is also a very caring ninja and very deeply integrated to the community. He's very positive and as always cheering his other ninjas on! Jamie is an excellent coach and has helped a great many individuals succeed in reaching their goals in and out of his gym. We expect great things from Jamie and think he could also be one of our first winners for the Wolfpack Ninja Tour! We also want to congratulate Jamie for getting engaged!

After being a course tester for ANW Season 7, she was in love with the sport. A friend told her to start an Instagram account to record her training and her account exploded, gathering over 100,000 followers in one year. Brian Arnold invited her to join him and Jake Murray for Season One of Team Ninja Warrior, and they took home the Championship Title. Jennifer’s strength to body weight ratio sets her apart and her videos (like a one handed ring pushup) have gathered millions of views and been repeatedly featured on platforms like Reddit, Imgur and News Channels. As Jennifer’s exposure has grown, she has begun sharing her story publicly, encouraging women and girls to pursue their passions and get strong. Jennifer lives in Minnesota with her two daughters Louella, 8 and Emma, 7 and has a background as a collegiate tennis player and personal trainer. Her training programs will be offered on her website soon! She is a full-time sponsored athlete with Optimum Nutrition, Conquer Ninja Warrior and Three Ball Climbing and a Fitness Model. KEY NINJA VID  SOCIAL MEDIA REACH: 179,000  INSTAGRAM – TWITTER – FACEBOOK – WEB 00:53:00Wolfpack Ninjasnojennifer tavernier,wolfpack ninjas,wolfpack ninja tourJennifer Tavernier is a powerhouse.

Jon was one of the other climbers on the course that night, and believe it or not, Ninjas view each other as athletes without too much thoughts about age. UNTIL something amazing happens and then the age bit gets talked about. So it was with Jon that night in Denver so many moons ago. Jon was the first competitor to clear the difficult finals course, and in the end, only Paul Kasemir and the rest of the Wolfpack (Ian, Noah, Brian & Isaac) would end up clearing the course that evening. All climbers, and one 52 year old climber. What a stud. Needless to say, this kicked-off a friendship that has endured the seasons and grown. Jon is a huge ally to the pack on our mission to fight obesity and overweight problems in this country. Jon is a role-model and a family man and has the dubious distinction of being a role-model to adults as well as kids. Everybody wants to be like Jon.

We can all learn a thing or two about tenacity from Kacy Catanzaro. This woman is made of steel. Kacy was the first woman to finish the Warped Wall (partially by circumstance; Meagan and Michelle Warnky also were able to complete the wall in later cities.) However, Kacy is still the only woman ever to finish a City Finals course which is remarkable. The YouTube video of her sensational feat went viral and hit 10 million within just a few days! This is even more impressive since Kacy is only about 5 feet tall making the gaps and distances proportionately farther for her small frame. Kacy Catanzaro is a former award-winning Division 1 NCAA gymnast and a professional obstacle course athlete in San Antonio, Texas. While she has made a name for herself as both a managing partner for Alpha Warrior and a student athlete at Towson University, she is most notably known for the historic feat of becoming the first woman to ever scale the 14ft Warped Wall, complete a qualifying course, complete a city finals course, and earn a spot to the Las Vegas Finals in Season 6 of American Ninja Warrior. She has consistently raised the bar for women and led the battle cry for women to try hard and to reach their potential. She is looked up to by millions of fans despite her diminutive stature. The Wolfpack has had the honor of hanging out with Kacy on numerous occasions and the other thing you should know about her is that she loves to have a good time! She is as humble as she is powerful, and her fans love her for it. There is something special about Kacy. She is one of those surprising superheros who has a fierce competitive spirit and the eye of the Tiger. Here's to you, Kacy!

Jessie Graff)Josh Levin is one of those amazing up and coming  Ninjas that excels in all areas of his life. Highly motivated and driven, Josh leverages his natural born gifts and is dedicated to self-improvement and making the world a better place. Sound familiar? It should. As a climber and a top rookie sensation on American ninja Warrior, Josh is basically a Wolfpack member in the making. After you hear his interview and see some of the things this guy can do, we think you will agree that he is indeed, the real deal. Josh is focused--like all great Ninjas--on developing his mind as well as his body. Both are equally important and crucial to leading a happy and healthy life. But Josh is interested in far more than personal development. He is a dedicated and loyal advocate of improving the world and leading by example. Josh's main focus is making sure there is awareness about organ donation. You see, one of Josh's largest influencers and role models was his coach, Stacey. Sadly, Stacey has been fighting a rare illness that has caused her to require an even more rare double lung transplant. Josh has been by Stacey's side through the ordeal and has brought the cause to a broader platform with the help of American Ninja Warrior. Josh Levin genuinely cares about making a social impact and joins many other Ninjas in this regard. It's a common theme and Ninjas are quick to adapt their problems solving abilities and dedication to self-improvement to improvement of the lives of others around them. This is part of the Ninja way. 01:21:00Wolfpack Ninjasnojosh levin,jessie graff,wolfpack ninjas,American Ninja WarriorJosh Levin is one of those amazing up and coming Ninjas that excels in all areas of his life.

Kaufman, MD - The NinjadocDr. Kaufman is often regarded as the "Leader" of the Wolfpack Ninjas. The fact of the matter is, however, that all the Wolfpack Ninjas are strong leaders. In this episode, we get to know the Ninjadoc a bit better and get to hear about his day job in the ER. We also learn more about the Wolfpack Ninjas' mission to combat childhood obesity and diabetes and how social entrepreneurialism plays into that. The coolest thing about this episode is that it is actually ANOTHER PODCAST embedded in the Wolfpack Ninja Podcast!

He lost his mother to cancer at an early age and is now living his life in her honor. He is just a solid guy and a Ninja's Ninja. Between his good-natured humor, and his "Ninja Quickies," Evan is always a total bro! In PART 2 of Evan's interview, he discusses some major life changes where he had to be strong and follow his heart. This reminds us of other Ninja stories we've heard in the past including the one and only Dr. Matt Iseman who joined us for episode 2 of the wpnp. Evan is a stand up guy and a real friend to all the Ninjas. He is also one of the veterans who has been around for many years. AND, he was an AMERICAN GLADIATOR! There is quite a bit to say about Evan as an athlete. From his success on The American Gladiator reboot wherein he won and was invited back--as a gladiator this time--to become "The Rocket" to his success on American Ninja Warrior, Team Ninja Warrior and then hosting NBC's Spartan Race show most recently. Evan wants to inspire others to chase their dreams and not waste their lives away doing something that they don't love. He learned a lot from watching his mother slowly lose a battle to cancer. He and his family had to be close and the experience was a powerful one. Evan reflects on this pain and the growth that came out of it and shares the lessons of that growth. Evan is quick to make fun of himself in a funny, off-beat "I'm too sexy for my shirt" kind of way. But he doesn't mean it. He has a very thin surface that he sheds quickly when discussing important matters, and when it comes to competing, he is all in. Thanks so much for being that smart funny and handsome Ninja, Evan!

He sees a lot of crazy bad things happen to people during his job on the streets as a frontline EMS Firefighter in some of the busiest locales on the East coast. This has definitely molded his personality and has given him a drive and confidence that is enviable in the Ninja community. But he is a humble as they come. He is a nice guy and has a quirky sense of humor that many people don't instantly understand or recognize.  This last Sunday night, Mike Bernardo absolutely decimated a 40 foot salmon ladder that none of the other top ninjas could touch. It was a moment of triumph for the entire community and Mike shares his experience. Additionally, Mike talks about failure and how to push forward towards your dream despite the (inevitable) setbacks. Mike has been a longtime superman of American Ninja Warrior and together with his bro, Ryan Stratis has turned from super fan into super Ninja. Mike has made it to the top 1% of all ninjas and in doing so has secured his place in history as one of the best. He was also a part of "Stratisfaction" on Team Ninja Warrior, and he is excited to be living the life and feels fortunate to be invited back year after year on this amazing show. We also discuss his experience watching 2 amazing Ninjas beat the course last season and discusses some amazing philosophy on life and, of course, salmon ladder technique... 01:08:00Wolfpack Ninjasnomike bernardo,American Ninja Warrior,wolfpack ninjasMike Bernardo is a complex guy.

Period. He has always carried himself with humility and grace during that time. As he has grown more capable as an athlete, he has also grown as a person. Some people change for the worse with fame, but Ryan is a glowing example of a Ninja who has embraced his elevation to role-model status and taken it for what it is: an honor and responsibility to help his fans become the people they want to be through hard work and dedication. Ryan Stratis has also had his set-backs though. Whether it is injury or an unlucky early exit from an ANW season, Ryan has taken his licks and come out on top. During Team Ninja Warrior, we saw a fierceness in his eyes and a fire in his heart that cannot be taught. Ryan involves his soul into his work and play and his friendships. His selfless gifts to fellow ninjas are discussed in the podcast along with his injuries, his past and his thoughts on seeing Midoriyama go down last year at the hands of two incredible athletes. Ryan has long been one of ANW's "most eligible bachelors," and is a super hero both on the set and off. As a stuntman, he has been a zombie, has been shot, has been a bad-guy and gets to play out many of the character types that he is not. You get the feeling Ryan would, and perhaps will, be an excellent actor for a lead roll in an action flic someday. He is charismatic and has a fascination with gaming, sci-fi/fantasy and an intellectual curiosity about life that makes him not afraid to have a little fun. It was great talking to Ryan; the Wolfpack was very impressed with his speed and power during Team Ninja Warrior and if he follows along his growth trajectory, there is a big chance we could see him standing atop Midoriyama shouting his trademark war cry. Wouldn't that be something! Here's to you, Ryan Stratis... The true Veteran! 00:53:00Wolfpack Ninjasnoryan stratis,american ninja warrior,wolfpack ninjasRyan Stratis has competed in every ANW season.

With over 1000,000 followers on Instagram (follow him @moderntarzan,) Nicholas lives by his mantra to "do something awesome everyday." Indeed, Nicholas is a bit of a joker, a bit of a hero, and all Ninja for sure. Like most of us in the Ninja universe, Nicholas was instantly addicted to the challenge, the training and the mental fortitude it takes to live a life dedicated to Ninja. His default is GO and his two gears are EXTREME NINJA and BOSS MODE. Once he figures out the 9.5 thingy he will be full Jedi. In his interview, Nicholas Coolridge shares with us his vision and his passion. He states clearly that his goal was to be "paid to be himself" which he has clearly accomplished. Hooking up with Travis Brewer--a fellow Ninja who's show was last week--Nicholas wants to inspire his followers to live out their dreams and develop their bodies and minds. Wait a second... That's what the Wolfpack Ninjas want as well! I think we are seeing a trend with all these positive and inspirational Ninjas which is they have become the people they always wanted to be, and now they want to show others that they can do it too. 00:34:00Wolfpack Ninjasnonicholas coolridge,modern tarzan,american ninja warrior,wolfpack ninjasAmerican Ninja Warrior Nicholasd Coolridge IS the MODERN TARZAN.

Instantly likable and humble, this quirky former dumpster-diver made a stunning debut on American Ninja Warrior in season 6 by becoming the first and only Ninja to complete the Venice City Finals. Nicholas is a super nice guy and as a humble and very handsome Ninja instantly, fit into the Ninja community, gaining instant respect from top Ninjas for his amazing acrobatic abilities.

I think we are seeing a trend with all these positive and inspirational Ninjas which is they have become the people they always wanted to be, and now they want to show others that they can do it too. Nicholas leads by example. His speed and fluidity as a Ninja are already legendary despite the fact that last season was his rookie year. When Nicholas moves it's like watching a panther or some other large cat moving powerfully, gracefully and confidently through obstacles. Searching for inspiration himself, this acrobatic genius may have found his muse with the American Ninja Warrior show. Give Modern Tarzan a follow on Instagram.

This Handstand/calisthenic expert is out to improve the lives of others as a social entrepreneur, and  he is one of the veteran American Ninja Warriors who have made it to Finals in Vegas. Travis is a clothing designer with a company called Pi Movement that makes INCREDIBLE Ninja /parkour clothes that enable complete freedom of movement. His company gives a Pi portion (3.14%) to a good cause (currently building parks and playgrounds for kids!) Travis had had some major obstacles to overcome in his life including a horrific knee injury which took him years to come back from. He also had to change his life when his previous job and life path proved to be unfulfilling. Travis is one of those magical guys who makes life seem... Well, magical. With over 60,000 Instagram followers and an amazing collection of very inspiring photos and media, Travis has not wanted for publicity or public exposure. American Ninja Warrior was a perfect stage to elevate to, and he dominated the courses and has become a seasoned veteran. Travis always has AMAZING antics on the course including pressing his body up into a handstand at the top of the warped wall and walking, ON HIS HANDS, over to the buzzer and tapping the buzzer casually with his foot.  Amazing! Recently, Travis has combined forces with Nicholas Coolridge, The Modern Tarzan, to promote health and create a new athletic/spiritual experience for the lucky people of Los Angeles where they live. As part of Jessie Graf's G-Force on the smash hit TV show spin off Team Ninja Warrior, Travis has been one of the more popular Ninjas in ANW history and has had a big impact on the health of his fans and clients. When you are around Travis, you really get the feeling that anything is possible!

The wolves also grow emotional discussing Isaac Caldiero. Geoff Britten is a family man, first and foremost. Sure he loves American Ninja Warrior, just like the rest of us (and so does his wife the very talented and lovely Jessica Britten; also a strong Ninja competitor on the show!) But Geoff devotes relatively little time to actual hardcore ANW training. He has a little gym in his basement where he trains very very hard for about 2 hours a day; every day. Part man, part machine, this 20 year + rock climber is one of only 2 people ever to complete the American Ninja Warrior course, and THE ONLY Ninja athlete to ever have a perfect season and not get wet! When Geoff Britten got done with the rope climb--which he did in under the required 30 seconds--he was asked what he thought about Isaac's odds of success were. He was gracious and paid respect to his climbing brother, and then also said "but I know one thing: I'm the FIRST AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR!" This has been a point of contention among many fans and unfortunately, Geoff and Isaac grew distant after the competition. Although they both completed such an amazing accomplishment, only Isaac won $1,000,000 and the Title while Geoff literally walked away empty handed. Since then, dedicated fans have raised more than $13,000 for the Britten family via a GOFUNDME which you can donate to. You should click on the link and give a few dollars as well to this American Hero! Also, you may be surprised to see the First ANW poll results (vote and view below.)

They also discuss philosophy, health, nutrition and the life of an ordinary family man turned Ninja-superhero.

Elet Hall is well known as the Natural. He just moves like a cat; and lands like one too. He follows his own mantra and is a total original. Out of all the Ninjas out there in the Ninjaverse, Elet Hall is genuine and embodies integrity and character. Two seasons ago, Elet was one of only TWO Ninjas to make it to stage 3 during a very difficult year. This was the year that the Wolfpack all fell on the notoriously difficult Stage two of Mt. Midoriyama in Vegas. The only other Ninja to make it? Joe Moravsky. Elet is not competing this year on American Ninja Warrior and we find out why. Elet is as strong as they come and has strong opinions as well, especially with respect to the way Ninja affects his life and interactions with others. Also--and few know this because of his humble demeanor and soft-spoken ways--Elet wrestles with Lyme Disease. Through this deeper-than-you'd-expect interview and podcast, Elet discusses his personal views with the Wolfpack Ninjas and we once again see a deeper side of a Ninja that few know from the "Natural Hero" portrayed on the show. Verily, Elet Hall is a study of contradictions. But we all have those contradictions; Elet just acknowledges them and works with them while most of us pretend they don't exist. For example, Elet loves American Ninja Warrior, but he hardly trains like the other N injas do and he also dislikes the negatives about the way he is now perceived by some of his fans as being "up on a pedestal." But he is. 00:46:00Wolfpack Ninjasnoelet hall,natural,training outdoors,American Ninja WarriorElet Hall is The Natural: a rare breed of Ninja and his skills are as mysterious as his personality.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/wolfpackninjapodcast/2016/03/22/wolfpack-ninja-podcast-episode-11--joe-moravsky-the-weathermanFitnesshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/wolfpackninjapodcast/2016/03/22/wolfpack-ninja-podcast-episode-11--joe-moravsky-the-weatherman/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/wolfpackninjapodcast/2016/03/22/wolfpack-ninja-podcast-episode-11--joe-moravsky-the-weathermanTue, 22 Mar 2016 07:00:00 GMTWolfpack Ninja Podcast Episode 11 - Joe Moravsky: The WeathermanJoe Moravsky can sing. Boy can he sing, and DOES in this awesome episode of the Wolfpack Ninja Podcast! Joe is a personality, and athletic beast. He is an on-air actual weatherman by day as well as a loving father and a dedicated American ninja Warrior. Joe Moravsky isn't any onld ANW though, he is one of the best and for a while there, the crowd favorite and odds-on favorite to be the First American Ninja Warrior. As a 2 year Team USA veteran and the only American EVER to make it to Stage 3 in Vegas Finals every year he has competed, Joe is amazing. He is cool under pressure and shares some very poignant views in his interview and leaves the wolves with a lot to discuss. Joe is well-liked by all the other ninjas and is a hero to kids all across America and the world. Joe is a very versatile athlete and has done some very cool parkour commercial work for the Weather Channel. He is a smart and handsome guy who is very likable and although he likes to say hes "just an average Joe" evidence seems to suggest otherwise. Joe was one of only 2 athletes (the other being the incredible Elet Hall) to make it to stage 3 in Vegas during ANW 6. This was the year us Wolfpack ALL went out on a notoriously difficult stage 2 in Vegas. Joe has consistently made it incrementally further on the course. As a non-climber, he along with Kevin Bull and Drew Drechsel have the tightest upper-body game in the business. On one occasion during his ANW career, Joe even broke a famous obstacle and instead of giving up, found a way past the impasse!!! (see video below!) This was akin to Kevin Bull's amazing feat that same season. 00:31:00Wolfpack Ninjasnojoe,moravsky,American Ninja WarriorJoe Moravsky can sing.

This episode is dedicated to making you a stronger climber, ninja and person through the secret training tips and advice from the Wolfpack Ninjas. Between the four of them, Noah, Brian, Meagan and Ian HAVE OVER 75 YEARS OF ROCK CLIMBING EXPERIENCE. They have all climbed V12 and harder and Ian has done some of the hardest climbs in the world. For those of you who do not know, 99.9% of climbers can not climb V10 or harder. Furthermore, American Ninja Warrior obstacles are fairly easy by comparison ranging from V0 to about V5 at the hardest. It takes most climbers 8-10 years of constant training and effort to be able to climb their first V10 or 5.14, marks of pride amongst climbers akin to earning your black belt. Here is a grade scale: Climbing is best suited for the upper-body intensive obstacles found in the later stages of American ninja Warrior. Being expert climbers, the Wolfpack Ninjas have consistently done very well on the courses despite training only a few months per year for Ninja specific athleticism. Climbing is an adaptive sport and in general, climbers seldom are doing the same moves twice. This adaptability is what trains the Wolfpack and guys like Geoff Britten to be able to adapt quickly to knew obstacles much like parkour master Jesse La Flair and others. Although they wish they could play on the rocks all year long outside, the Wolfpack Ninjas are stuck inside training much of the winter. This is a good thing though since training in a more scientific way indoors is often the key to breaking out to new levels outdoors. In this episode, the ninjas discuss their top secret training secrets: creating a movement "library," circuit training, bouldering, sport climbing, different hand positions, training weaknesses, endurance and nutrition for optimal performance and health.

Verily, Sean may be the best. Sean McColl has competed in over 100 World Cup Rock Climbing competitions (our olympics) and has won multiple of these competitions in both categories; Sport climbing and bouldering (see videos below for differences.) Sean is a training guru and has a wildly popular YouTube channel (see link below.) Sean is a happy-go-lucky competitor with a fierce drive to be the best that has made him, well, the best. Rivaled by only a select few in the upper echelons of the Rock Climbing world, Sean discusses his approach to his climbing and life in this revealing Wolfpack Ninja Podcast interview. American Ninja Warrior was a natural extension of Sean's pursuits of excellence with only one minor problem: He's Canadian. He always watched and dreamed of being able to compete on the Show. He finally got his chance when approached for a spot on Team Europe over the last two seasons. Sean shocked everyone out of the blue with his amazing rookie performance on the very difficult stage 2 of Midoriyama (see video below for Sean's amazing debut run!) Although climbers have known and revered Sean for many years, suddenly his talents could suddenly be seen by a broader audience. Sean discusses his training, his mental approach and his thoughts about American ninja Warrior specifics in this awesome interview. He also reveals some things you might not know like his passion for gaming and his disciplined approach to diet and nutrition. Sean is a driven character and he is still young at 27 years old. Already on top of the world in competition, Sean seems like the kind of guy that can accomplish just about anything he sets his mind to. He is unafraid of failure and dedicated to self-improvement in the way only a true ninja can be.

In this interview, Kevin lays down the attributes that he feels have led him to amazing moments as one of the best American Ninja Warriors. Time. Kevin reminds us that if you continue along a path towards self-improvement in any area of life, Time itself cannot be underestimated as the important ingredient of becoming that which you set out to become. Day by day dedication to excellence adds up into true excellence. It just takes time. Kevin also discusses thinking outside the box for his famous move (pictured above and seen in the video below.) He also discusses how it almost went wrong and what it was like actually trying such a crazy maneuver! Kevin Bull is a close friend to the Wolfpack Ninjas and has come out to train with us on several occasions. At one point, a few years ago, Kevin trained with us at the Wolf Den in Fort Collins and was very open to learning new training methods and techniques. He incorporated these quickly and is now a Team USA competitor and one of only a handful of Ninjas to ever make it to the legendary upper-body torture course which is stage 3 at Midoriyama. 00:32:00Wolfpack Ninjasnokevin bull,American Ninja WarriorKevin Bull is one of the best American Ninja Warriors - You knew that.

He was the top dog for many years, pushing standards in obstacle course running. A solid background in gymnastics and outdoor sports, Brent is able to flow through courses and often makes it look really easy.  During our podcast, Brent espouses his views on nutrition and training and keeps it chill; "Sometimes you have to enjoy the sweet things in life." Brent is all about moderation and balance.  He is "just a AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR -- "American Ninja Warrior in Venice" -- Pictured: Brent Steffensen -- (Photo by: Brandon Hickman/NBC) guy searching for fun" and he has found it.  Whether he's on the American Ninja Warrior course, or ripping through a downhill mountain bike flight, Brent is a versatile athlete and an all around great guy. In our first season of ANW, the Wolfpack Ninjas looked to Brent, as many of the ninjas did, for advice and inspiration (and we still do!)  Brent has had the same struggles that many of us have had on the course and in life.  He came back from a pressure induced mistake in season 6 to return to form in season 7 as one of the top ninjas once again. Brent discusses body weight exercises and how important strength to weight ratio is and dynamic training. We discuss coming from different backgrounds and the unique aspects of running obstacles.  Other show topics include his views on the First American Ninja Warrior story about Geoff Britten and Isaac Caldiero, his advice for fans and kids of all ages who want to follow their dreams and improve themselves, and of course, his experience with the TEAM NINJA WARRIOR phenomenon. 00:32:00Wolfpack Ninjasnobrent steffensen,American Ninja WarriorBrent Steffensen is a legend in our sport.

It's so neat to explore these Ninja's minds, and YES, we consider Matt a Ninja brother. Matt is not only a Ninja on the Mic, but he rocks obstacles as well! At 235 lbs and 45 yrs old, Matt has cruised obstacles in front of our eyes; impressing many a ninja warrior and fan alike.   In this episode, Dr. Kaufman interviews Dr. Iseman and gets into some really interesting dialogue about the show, Matt's brief flirt with a medical career, the Isaac & Geoff controversy, advice for the kiddos and fans out there, and his thoughts on the AMAZING new Esquire TV show Team Ninja Warrior. TNW as it has come to be known, was filmed this last fall and is currently airing on Esquire. The Wolfpack was a big part of the show as we were all chosen to be team captains (except Meagan who was on Ian's team...)  Matt expresses genuine excitement when discussing how much fun it was seeing the top ninjas racing each other.  I got the feeling that Matt would have loved to race Akbar on the course, and it is our mission in life to see this ultimately happen.
