What does it take to go from playing Call of Duty to the real thing? Woody Heard joins the Ones Ready team to share his journey from a kid with a dream to a Green Beret 18 Delta, surviving trauma training, deployments, and even college discussion boards in a combat zone. We're talking about risk, resilience, and why deadlifting improperly before basic training isn’t the flex you think it is. Like, subscribe, smash that bell, and join our membership to keep this madness going. Oh, and leave a review—because if Woody can do it, so can you.
