Welcome to the Champion Living Podcast with Doug Champion. In this trailblazing, first of its kind podcast, you’ll have access to everything Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset as it pertains to the modern day Professional Rodeo Cowboy / Athlete.
Listen in each week as host, Doug Champion, owner and CEO of Champion Living Fitness, brings you honest conversations with his coaching staff about current events in Professional Rodeo, fitness and nutrition tips for all walks of life, and mindset improvement to start achieving what you know you’ve always been capable of.
Doug and team will share their personal experiences and knowledge in fitness and nutrition to help show you the “approachable” way to achieve your fitness and nutrition goals. As well as how these things set you up for success in the rest of your life, not just the gym or the arena!
Oh! And they are definitely gonna have a ton of fun as well!! If you know Doug and his coaches you know they rarely aren't smiling or laughing, so guaranteed there will be some laughs! And if you don’t know us just yet, stop in and get to know us! Our vision at Champion Living is to help as many people as we possibly can improve their life through fitness and nutrition, no matter what walk of life you.
To be a champion, you have to see the big picture. It's not about winning and losing; it's about consistent effort and thriving on a challenge, even if you fall. It's about embracing the pain that you'll experience at the end of a race and not being afraid. People think too much and get consumed by the fear of failure, when in all reality they just had to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
It’s time for you to become a Champion.
