Summary
Hunter Mcintyre is Pro Endurance Athlete, Broken Skull Champion, BoundlessTV co-Host, Obstacle Course Racing Champion, and a Macho Man. With his unique catchphrase, "biceps win races", Hunter strikes a brilliant contrast to the "skinny minis", each and every time he takes the podium.
Hunter, AKA 'The Sheriff" loves to perform with the showmanship of a WWF wrestler. He is, however, an inveterate lover of all things, particularly life. At 27, he has already been a lumberjack in Montana, a party "enthusiast", and male model. His wild and crazy charisma shines. Hunter, was born to entertain! His passion for life is built around creating each day to be better than the day before. Thriving on daily challenges, you can find him crafting and creating new experiences, from climbing the biggest mountain to setting the foundations of new friendships.
In this episode, we talk to Hunter about becoming a professional OCR athlete, training for to compete at the CrossFit Games, using psychedelics to set PR's, dating life as a professional athlete, what's a yearly training schedule for a professional OCR athlete, why having 2 IPA's is exactly how everyone should do a podcast, and more.
Enjoy!
