At just 16, Os Aponte was running a martial arts school in Puerto Rico with over a hundred students. Today, he’s a U.S. Army veteran, author, and strength coach known for blending martial arts discipline, neuroscience, and movement mastery into a philosophy of lifelong fitness.

In this conversation, Os shares how leading soldiers in the Army shaped his approach to strength, why “less is more” in training, and how neural efficiency—not just muscle size—creates real, lasting power. You’ll also hear how kettlebells, gait mechanics, and breathwork can rewire your body for performance at any age.

Whether you’re a coach, athlete, or weekend mover, Os’s story will challenge how you think about fitness and inspire you to see training as a lifelong pursuit of self-mastery.

We discuss:

  • How Os became a martial arts instructor at 16

  • What the military taught him about leadership and physical mastery

  • The difference between strength, conditioning, and fitness

  • Why neurological training beats burnout

  • The power of the Turkish get-up and “leaving one in the tank”

  • How to make your fitness serve your life—not the other way around
