Ep. 771: Six Time World Champion Wrestler - Jordan Burroughs
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.

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.Follow Jordan on Instagram at @alliseeisgoldTo learn more about Athletic Brewing’s award-winning non-alcoholic craft beer, go to AthleticBrewing.comSupport Adventure Sports Podcast monthly by going to Patreon.com/AdventureSportsPodcast or make a one-time donation to the show here.
