About this episode
Send us a text Peaches sits down with Idaho SWAT officer and 600-pound deadlifter Chris Jacob to drop some uncomfortable truths about what it really means to look, act, and perform like a professional. From chasing suspects to coaching CrossFit, Chris doesn’t sugarcoat how being out of shape in uniform isn’t just lazy—it’s dangerous. They get brutally honest about law enforcement culture, the myth of “less aggressive policing,” and why your command presence might be the only thing keeping someone from pulling the trigger. Chris opens up about losing 75 pounds, founding Guardian Labs, and using peptides to recover faster and train harder—all while raising a family and mentoring new recruits. Peaches and Chris dive into everything from tactical fitness, accountability, and police discretion to what happens when your “desk job” becomes your downfall. This episode isn’t about politics or excuses—it’s about showing up, shutting up, and setting the standard. If your gut’s hanging over your belt, consider this your wake-up call. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – “The Way You Look Can Save Your Life” — Why Command Presence Still Matters 05:00 – From 300 lbs to SWAT: Chris Jacob’s No-BS Transformation 10:30 – CrossFit, Family, and 4:30 a.m. Grind Sessions 15:00 – Cops vs. Reaction Time: The Harsh Reality of Hesitation 20:00 – Arrests, Discretion, and a $50 Can of Baby Formula 25:30 – Inside the Schools: What Resource Officers REALLY Deal With 30:00 – Guardian Labs and Peptides — Healing Without Big Pharma 38:00 – The Unspoken Rule: You Don’t Have the Right to Be Fat 42:00 – Fighting Drunks, Fitness Standards, and SWAT Realities 46:00 – Why Your PT Test Doesn’t Mean Sh t (and What Should Replace It)* 50:00 – Recruiting, Readiness, and Why Law Enforcement Needs a Culture Shift 56:00 – Family, Faith, and Fighting Back Against Burnout 🎯 Call-to-Actions: 👍 Like the episode if you actually train harder than you talk about it. 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next reality check. 💬 Drop your take in the comments—agree or not, just back it up. 🌟 Leave a review to kee Support the show Join this channel to get access to perks: HERE Buzzsprout Subscription page: HERE Register for our Operator Training Summit: OperatorTrainingSummit.com Collabs: Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code: ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code): ATACLete Danger Close Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADY DFND Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADY Hoist - Promo Code: ONESREADY ...
