At the first USPC Para Nationals in August 2025, Matt was honored to compete as an Adaptive Athlete, becoming the first leg amputee to squat 500 lbs in competition...

This week on The Impossible Podcast, Matt and Austin dive into the Domains of Performance that drove Matt to compete and perform at a potential that should have been far beyond his reach, despite the physical challenges he faces.

Using Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual strength to perform when the body could not, Matt found his highest potential under the bar...

And truly prove that Limitations Do Not Exist.

Listen in to hear exactly where Matt and Austin's heads were at each step of the day, and find out exactly how Matt overcame failing this same weight on his second attempt, to turn around and complete it on his third.

Thank you for listening, and as always...Be Impossible!
