This episode is sponsored by 511 Tactical, a company that I've used for around 14 years now and

continue to use to this day. And they are offering you, the audience, a 15% discount, not on one

purchase, but continuously. And I'll give you that code in just a moment. But I want to do a

myself, and I can attest they're extremely comfortable. On top of footwear, of course, 511 offers

a gamut of uniforms and equipment, whether it's plate carriers, backpacks, flashlights, you name it, they have it.

All you have to do is go to 511 Tactical.com and use the code shield 15.

That's S-H-I-E-L-D-1-5 at 511tactical.com and you will save every time you purchase.

And to learn more about the company 511 Tactical,

you can listen to episode 338 of the Behind the Shield podcast with the CEO Francisco Morales.

partner of the UFC. So when it comes to supplements, the tactical athlete space and the athletic space need two things.

We need efficacy, meaning the products do what they say they're going to do on the label,

and then we need to trust the fact that we are not going to fail either athletic drug tests or work-related drug tests.

Now, Thorne has actually been around since the 1980s,
