I had the great honor of interviewing John Brookfield, a long time friend of mine, but moreover a man with exceptional physical, mental, and spiritual prowess!
I underestimated him the first time I met him, and was immediately humbled, by quite possibly the most humble man to ever achieve so many world records and physical feats.
Here are just a few:
Needless to say, he is an extraordinary man physically and mentally.
His secret?
His daily time with God.
He attributes all of his feats of strength and innovation in the fitness world to what God has revealed to him.
In the interview he said, he was asking God how to get better at the truck pulling, and saw a vision of tsunamis and fast running creeks.
So he started trying to mimic the flow of water with ropes, only to discover that you have to be both strong and fast and have massive amount of endurance to continue either of those motions. His revelation in velocity was quickly noticed by NFL football teams, special forces, and Olympic athletes, and they asked him to come to their facilities to show them how to effectively train with the ropes.
And just like that, battling ropes or battle ropes became a ten-year, overnight success, and are now seen in gyms and home-gyms and garage-gyms around the world.
John Brookfield has blessed me with the opportunity to continue to share the message of the ropes and fitness, and I am doing everything I can to help spread the word about proper techniques and training, as well as adding in my discoveries in wave physics, mechanical physics, and metabolic pathway programming with the ropes.
Speaking with John Brookfield these past few weeks in preparation for this interview, and being his friend for a decade now, is something I deeply cherish. And I hope you enjoy our interview as well.
