Summary
Wrestling: Jordan Burroughs Shares Day-to-Day Focus and Grit – Olympic Champion Career, Decade of Championships, Overcoming Losses, Principles for Any Goal or Hobby.
Jordan Burroughs has one of the most medaled and storied careers of any American wrestler. That feat hasn’t come easy and it definitely hasn’t come without its losses. However, it’s the day-to-day focus that Jordan credits to keeping him on top of the competition, well into his decade-long wrestling career, where he’s still racking up championships.
Although this isn’t adventure sports-related per se, I believe Jordan’s life principles and grit is applicable to any hobby, career, or goal you’re setting for yourself.
Check out Jordan’s Without Compromise series on Athletic Brewing’s YouTube channel.

| 0:36.4 | I'm your host, Mason. |
| 0:40.1 | Typically on Thursday, we do a throwback Thursday episode from just an episode we had in our archives, but today we're going to do |
| 0:46.8 | something a little different. We are going to listen to something that's a little more timely from |
| 0:51.9 | my other show called Without Compromise, which is |
| 0:55.9 | through athletic brewing where I work and, you know, the podcast I host through them. And we have a lot |
| 1:02.2 | of, you know, pro athletes and ambassadors and all kinds of cool stuff. Well, one of our athletes that |
| 1:07.9 | I just interviewed right before this competition was Jordan Burroughs. |
| 1:12.5 | And if you know anything about Jordan Burroughs, he's one of the greatest American freestyle wrestlers of all time. |

| 1:22.9 | He's probably one of the greatest Americans. |
| 1:24.6 | He is one of the greatest Americans of all time. |
| 1:26.8 | And he just |
| 1:28.4 | literally over the weekend won his sixth world title when you count his Olympic gold medal in 2012. |
| 1:35.6 | And he's one of the most winningest, one of those most meddled of all time. And I thought it was |
