In this episode, I talk with Pat Cummins, who is a former Top 10 UFC Light Heavyweight fighter and a 2X NCAA Division 1 All-American. We talk about all things related to his health and fitness including...

We also talk about Pat's childhood and what life looked like being raised by two teachers, the way he ate, and the role sports played in his early life.

 

We finish our conversation talking about Pat's new gym in LA.  Pat and his partner, Dave Puhky, will be opening their own jiu jitsu and kickboxing gym which will also offer personal training this Saturday, January 25, 2025.

 

For the month of January 2025, you can attend classes for FREE.  Due to the devastation from the Los Angeles wildfires and the incredible stress that they have caused, Pat and Dave want to give back to LA residents with free classes for the rest of the month.  Check out their class schedule and just show up.  They are creating a welcoming, fun, good hearted community of folks committed to their health and fitness.  Everyone is welcome.
