  • David Goggins holds down a desk job, but he's also a Navy SEAL who runs and bikes ultramarathons to raise money for the Warrior Foundation. We caught up with him for a quick interview to hear about some of his biggest accomplishments.
    David Goggins is based in San Diego, California, and is both an ultramarathon runner and ultracyclist. Some of his best known athletic efforts include the Badwater 135, the Grapevine 48 Hour National Championships, cycling challenges of over 500 miles at a time, and the Infinitus 88K. Goggins talks about his daily routine, which includes a typical 3:00 a.m. wakeup time, and his incredibly tough workout regimen (with 4-8 hours of cycling each day alone).

    drinking, smoking an playing video games... I wasted so many years on this shit but I want to turn my life around. I have made some progress and I am happy with the results so far... Even though I wish progress would come a bit faster, but still, I'm happy so far.

    4 years in the Air Force, and few years , 290-pound Goggins stood in a Navy recruiting center saying he wanted to become a SEAL. HE was told that a man of his stature would never make it through.Two months of intense dieting and exercise later, Goggins stood in the same recruiting office at 190 pounds. Goggins was forced through the SEAL(s)’ infamous hell week twice, but finally achieved his goal in 1998.

Up to 2009 I was 360 and in BAD shape. Now I run marathons, train people with weights and running, and am a Motivational speaker.

    • @TheHypernaught
      @TheHypernaught Před 6 lety +3

      It is not beyond normal people at all, what bullcrap. There is nothing special about Goggins except for his discipline and commitment. Once you have conquered yourself and are disciplined you can embark on the training, stick to it, consistency is all, and become fit enough to push yourself to the absolute limits. Every human being is capable of this. You work at it, it is not god given. The discipline is the hardest to master and many people fail on that alone.

    @dmulwee213 , And he competed in (not just ran, but competed) in a 100 mile race at that weight. He had broken some bones in his feet and if I remember correctly had kidney failure during that race. But, he still finished.
