Bruno Fallon spent 40 years in the special operations community: Army Ranger Battalion at 17, then Special Forces, then flight school to become an MH 47 Chinook flight lead with the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, the Night Stalkers. Between 30 years of active duty and ten more with the Department of Defense, he logged over six years of hostile fire combat time across Afghanistan, Iraq, the Horn of Africa, and the Philippines. Today he's Chief Marketing Officer and Director of Special Events at the Sawmill Training Complex.

Bruno doesn't hold back on out of shape police officers and firefighters. His position: there's no excuse for any first responder to not be fit, because "it's not about you, you're there for somebody else." He lays out what he sees as a systemic problem in law enforcement, departments that skimp on firearms training and hands on control tactics, and makes the case for why every officer should be training Brazilian jiu jitsu to avoid unnecessary escalations of force.

We also get into what it was like flying the MH 47 in combat, why the 160th is suddenly in the spotlight after the Venezuela operation, his take on the Bin Laden raid, why he still trains every day, sometimes twice, at 61, and what he learned running a national SWAT competition at the Sawmill.

Metabolism doesn't slow down at 30, and you don't need to pick a side between "calories are all that matter" and "just eat clean." In this episode, I break down the three-layer framework that cuts through nearly all nutrition confusion: calories determine what you weigh, macros determine how you look, and quality determines how you feel. You'll learn why most weight gain has nothing to do with a broken metabolism, how basal metabolic rate actually works, why protein intake changes your body composition independent of calories, and why food quality affects your mood and hunger even when calories are matched. If you've ever wondered which diet or influencer to trust, this episode gives you the filter to decide for yourself.

I was in Hawaii for Max's camp ahead of UFC 329, and everybody's been asking me the same questions since fight night. So I'm giving my real take, the fight, the outcome, and what most people missed watching it live.

Then I'm pulling back the curtain on camp itself. What we actually fed him, why this cut was different, and the calls that most fighters and coaches still get wrong.

No filter. Just what I saw from the inside.
