About this episode
The Rugby Rundown kicks off 2025 with an intense and motivational special! Former international rugby player Will Hooley and current Major League Rugby professionals from San Diego Legion take on the infamous Navy SEAL & leadership icon, Jocko Willink, in a brutal 4:34 AM military-style workout—set in the darkness of a San Diego Walmart car park.
Will Hooley sits down with Jocko to discuss:
- How discipline equals freedom and why it’s essential in sports and life
- What Jocko thinks about rugby and the growth of Major League Rugby
- How he would fare on the rugby field (Would Jocko dominate?)
Are you ready to take on the Jocko Fuel 434 Challenge?
