Jordan Buchla spent a decade as an emergency room trauma nurse while simultaneously becoming the #2 all-time strongest female squatter on the planet. From intubating patients during a pandemic to unracking 855 pounds, she built a high-performance life by forcing a "Type B" personality into a disciplined "Type A" structure. Inside the Episode: The Physics of Focus: Why the "pick" is the most underrated phase of a world-record squat Clinical Recovery: A Doctor of Nursing Practice's breakdown of BPC-157, TB-500, and hormone optimization The High-Stakes Pivot: Balancing a doctorate, 16-hour hospital shifts, and elite-level meet prep Gym Ownership Realities: The gritty truth of taking over Hellbent Barbell while preserving a hardcore culture The Identity Shift: Knowing when to step away from competition to build a legacy through mentorship and business Meet the Guest: Jordan Buchla, DNP, is a board-certified Nurse Practitioner and one of the strongest women in strength sports history. With an 855 lb multi-ply squat and a 545 lb bench press, she bridges elite performance and medical science through her work at BioRestore Health. She is now the owner of the legendary Hellbent Barbell, where she applies lessons from both the trauma ward and the mono-lift to athlete longevity and total human optimization.
