Gym Wins Don’t Count: Sloan “Caveman” Clymer on Real Competition, Respect & Weird Hobbies | Real Deal Talk

What happens on the mat… stays in the gym — unless you’re doing it on the platform. In this episode, Sloan “Caveman” Clymer (@sloanclymer) breaks down the difference between clout-chasing and true competition:

✅ Posting tapouts from training? Bad etiquette.

✅ Winning in the gym? Doesn’t matter if it’s not under pressure.

✅ Respect is earned when the lights are on and the weight is real.

Raised by a competitive bodybuilder and martial artist, Sloan shares how his dad’s discipline shaped him — even if he didn’t realize it at the time. From unicycles and nun chucks to fight camps and Jiu Jitsu black belts, Sloan's path proves that being different is often what makes you dangerous.
