Oh hello friends, welcome back to Modern Wisdom. My guest today is none other than Ryan Fischer.

Athlete, coach, gym owner and all-round mad guy. I've been wanting to sit down with him for ages.

Ryan's backstory is one of those tales that just doesn't sound real.

From being one of the top BMXs on the planet to moving to Hawaii to become a pilot,

to moving back to the US and becoming part of the Olympic Bob Slay team and then getting injured

and then missing it and then going to regionals for CrossFit and then being homeless and living

out of his car, it's a real whirlwind and it just totally shows me why Ryan is so popular online.

We also get into Ryan's principles for training and programming his thoughts on diet, how he

started his gym, his advice for budding gym owners and entrepreneurs. So yeah, sit back, relax and

get ready for the wise and wonderful Ryan Fischer.

Ryan Fischer in the building, how are you man? Super excited, it's been a long time coming.

It's been a very long time coming. You have missed each other like three different times,

times on problem but I've got you locked you down. How's the bicep, how's the injury?

Oh well actually that is coming along. I have like maybe three more weeks until I can kind of

cut loose but right now it's been, it's been one hell of an experience. I've never had to stay so

diligent about something for so long. Like I've literally had to like do nothing for two months

and then after that it's been very very lightweight for the last like month and I'm just like

dying to get after it again. But I think it was, I think it's been good for me now because I've been,

I've been getting after it for such a long time that to have a little bit of a break try again.

You've probably given other bits of your body arrest as well. Yeah. Yeah.

It's interesting. I've had a little bit of an injury as well and one thing that was a question

that's come through in my mind was who are you without your fitness? You know without that
