- Bigger. Faster. Stronger.
Meet Tim Ryan - a San Jose native now calling Southern Idaho home. Raised around NFL talent, he's turned that experience into a passion for developing the next generation. Today, he coaches for the Kimberly Bulldogs and is the owner of Iron Edge Performance - the definition of elite sports training. - In Episode 29 of The Western Grind, it's just Mitch and Drew behind the mics, talking shop about the boxing smoker-what it's like stepping into the ring, the mindset it takes, and what you learn when the gloves come on. The conversation rolls into Mitch's favorite rodeos, the arenas that stand out, and why certain places just feel different when you pull in the gate. No script, no hype-just two guys having a conversation.
- In this episode of The Western Grind, Mitch and Drew dive deep into mindset-what it really takes to stay focused when the road gets rough and the results aren't showing yet. We talk about recognizing when your current path isn't getting you where you want to go, and how making intentional changes can reset your trajectory without losing who you are. Whether you're grinding in the arena, on the ranch, or in everyday life, this conversation is about owning your choices, adjusting your approach, and committing to the work it takes to reach your goals.
