Pioneer belts have become synonymous with unmatched quality and dependability in the powerlifting and weightlifting community. Their belts have been trusted and used by some of the strongest humans on earth during world-record-setting lifts... I'm talking 1,000+ pound squats.

Matt Hadden is the president of Pioneer Belts (General Leathercraft Mfg.), a 3rd generation family-owned and operated business that services lifters around the world - all from their small town in central Texas.

Come behind the scenes with us as we discuss the 40+ year history of Pioneer Belts, how they utilized social media to gain worldwide attention, innovation, hardships, and the importance of putting in the work!

We talk about the invention of the Pioneer Cut Belts as well as the Pioneer Adjustable Lever!

091 - November Reflection

A look back on November’s conversations, highlighting my biggest takeaways from each.

085 - Ryan Huff – Addiction, Recovery and Self Love

The difference between a normal person and an alcoholic or an addict is that normal people change their behaviors to meet their goals and alcoholics or addicts change their goals to meet their behavior.

Being grateful for our past, in recovery

087 - Drew Hill – Strengthening the Youth

Perseverance – “Almost to the top” – taking a break along the route to the top of Mount Everest and dying - it’s dangerous.

088 - LeLani Lei – Life is All About the People You Meet

Being our authentic self and realizing that people love us for THAT.

Life is about the relationships we make – it’s not about the money, or cars, or things.

089 - Stephen Santellana - Serving Others Through Leadership

Powerful story of having a mental health breakdown just after his first child was born. Recognizing & managing stress. Be well spoken. Feeding our brain.

Consistency – 10 years of recording his workouts, and still shows up as a student, humble and hungry. Man’s Search For Meaning. Reminded me that best way to learn is to teach (coaching, mentoring, etc.)
