In Part 1, he talks about becoming a SEAL (4:06), including BUD/S training (6:38), Hell Week (10:30), his first mission (18:42), and the Rip Its Challenge and other forms of friendly hazing (25:18), as well as his first experience with WHOOP ( 29:24), why he believes it can help the military (32:55), how it enabled him to train smarter (39:47) and sleep better (43:03), plus his expectations (51:40) and prediction (59:47) two days prior to the competition.
