Hello ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, and welcome to your next episode of the podcast series. Today, I'm thrilled to introduce a guest who has seamlessly transitioned from the disciplined world of the British Army to the dynamic realm of civilian fitness: Coach Jason Curtis.
Jason's journey is one of resilience, innovation, and a deep understanding of the human psyche. After serving 6 years as an army physical training instructor, he ventured into the civilian fitness industry with a vision and sheer willpower. Despite initial financial challenges, he identified a unique niche: "Bringing Strength and Conditioning to the Masses." This approach not only transformed his training sessions but also led to the establishment of his own gym and the publication of 20+ best-selling book on Amazon.
In today's episode, we delve deep into Jason's innovative fitness race, the "Deadly Dozen." Set on an athletics track, this race is designed to challenge participants in a unique way. Jason envisions the Deadly Dozen as a standardised sport, aiming to take it to national and international levels, with the potential of licensing it out and even hosting competitions for the top 12 athletes in the world.
But our conversation goes beyond just fitness. We explore the profound philosophy of Stoicism, a topic both Jason and I are deeply passionate about. Jason shares how Stoicism, often misunderstood as mere emotional suppression, is actually about understanding and embracing challenges, taking an intellectual approach to problems, and determining the best course of action. He credits his reading of Marcus Aurelius's "Meditations" and other Stoic teachings for providing him with the mental tools to navigate the stresses of business and life.
We touch upon the traits of high performers, where Jason emphasises that one of the key traits is Stoicism. He believes that high performers see their commitments as non-negotiable, making it a habit to consistently perform at their best. This mindset, combined with the Stoic principles of understanding what's within one's control and accepting what's not, sets high performers apart.
By the end of this episode, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the dedication it takes to transition from one world to another, the innovation behind the Deadly Dozen, and the transformative power of Stoicism in shaping one's mindset.
For those eager to delve deeper into Jason's work or connect with him, you can find him on Instagram at @strengthandconditioningcourse and the link is in the show notes.
So, grab your headphones, settle in, and let's get going on this awesome journey with Coach Jason Curtis!
