Shohei Ohtani and the Power of Leading by Example

Shohei Ohtani and the Power of Leading by Example

Author: TRAIN HARD Media October 29, 2025 Duration: 52:09

Jason and MDV kick things off fired up about the World Series — Shohei Ohtani, the intensity of the games, and the lessons you can pull from how pros carry themselves on the biggest stage.

From there, the conversation shifts to what it really means to lead by example — especially for young boys watching how men train, compete, and handle themselves day to day.

From garage workouts with 11-year-olds to lessons learned from baseball, this one’s all about setting the standard, staying patient, and finding joy in being the example.
