I got to meet SO1 Goggins in New England. He was up here talking to some Seal pups (Contracted future SEALs waiting to go to Boot Camp then on to BUDs). I will admit that the guy is an animal but very arrogant and self centered. It was all about "I can do this. I can do that. You suck if you can't keep up with me. You suck. I guess the guy just rubbed me the wrong way.

I am Navy SEAL David Goggins. I'm sorry I hurt your feelings. My job there was to try and motivate. I'm not cocky, I'm not arrogant, and if you took it that way you must be one of those guys who are out of shape and take everything personal. I would love to know who you are, it's a shame you have to talk about me on line and can't talk directly to me. Feel free to email me anytime. I would love to talk to you off line you are the first person I've met to think of me in this way. A real man would face me face to face and discuss it.

Just to let everyone know I have met Mr. Goggins in New England and it was an absolute honor and pleasure to meet him. He was a positive influence on every one of us and his training recommendations were invaluable. Though not a motivational speaker, the intensity and passion in which he speaks is motivational and inspiring not negative as mentioned in another posting. I had the pleasure of getting one on one time with him and within thirty minutes he had my 1/4 mile times down by 12-15 seconds and my 1/2 mile down by over 30 seconds. David does know what he is talking about and he helped everyone who trained with him. We would love to have him back anytime.

I also meet David Goggins in New England. And he also help me with my training. From running to water training. He gave me his personal time, he didn't need to do that but he did. And I thank him for that. I feel because of him I have an advatange over anyone that goes to BUDs. Because I trained with SO1. He said it himself he's not a motivational speaker. But MAN was he motivating. Never any BS After his talks and his training. I could took on the world. Hoooyahh

Mr. Goggins: I've been reading your bios and found you on you tube running badwater. I've also seen your photo on crossfit. Can you share with me some of your workouts. I see you lift for a couple of hours everyday. Could you help me in detail of your resistance workouts. Thank you. Aaron Smith

I will testify to Gogggins character, his integrity and disposition may be the only thing that excells his mental endurance and physical abilities. David has always used his inteligence and physical prowess to protect and help motivate others to achieving more. I have never met a more stand up man then David Goggins. -William Dennis Brown Jr.-

I've known Dave for about 10 years and have had the pleasure to serve with him. Dave will help whoever he can....if you ask for help...he will do his best to help you...as long as you are willing. If you're not willing, don't bother speaking to him. He isn't self centered, just very focused. I'll admit...i've worked out with him quite a few times...and he's always pushed me...even when i wasn't at my best...but he has never talked trash to me about it....he just wants you to try as hard as you can...out

Goggins' accomplishments are unbelievable. The preparation he must put into a 100 mile race is unthinkable. He eats miles for breakfast!!
