Episode 57: Phil Daru {Discipline Will Compound Over Time}
Show Notes

This week I have legendary MMA Strength & Conditioning Coach Phil Daru on the show.  This was a great interview for coaches and athletes alike.
We began discussing Phil's background in athletics.  Playing sports all of his life, Phil began strength training with his grandfather at just 13 years old. This is where his career began, as he continued to educate himself with various strength coaches of the era and was writing periodized programming for his high school football team by just 16 years of age.
.
Continuing on as an athlete through to Div 1 football and eventually into professional MMA, he opened his first gym in his early 20's with (in his words) little to no business sense.
.
After retiring from fighting, Phil got the job in strength and conditioning at American Top Team and began training fighters like Dustin Poirier, King Mo Lawal, Tecia Torres and many more top tier athletes.
.
Since then he has continued to grow the Daru Strong brand into now one of the most widely recognized Strength & Conditioning brands in the world.
.
Through all of the success that Phil has had, as well as the athletes he has trained have had, the commonality has been discipline.  Discipline to put in work every day. Discipline to work on the things you suck at. Discipline to continue to push through when you are facing difficult moments. Discipline to continue to grow and educate yourself every day to provide value to those around you. This is why I picked the title Discipline Will Compound Over Time.
.
