Jason Walsh is an LA-based trainer who’s trained the likes of Matt Damon, Miles Teller, Brie Larson and Bradley Cooper for some of the most physically demanding roles of their careers. He’s also the founder of Rise Nation, which began in 2014 with the concept being to train like an athlete while working smarter, not harder. Rise has locations in New York City, Chicago, Dallas, Australia, Asia, and Cleveland and offers the first-ever curated 30-minute workout class that activates all major muscle groups simultaneously.

When Jason isn’t putting together training plans for his clients or pouring his energy into Rise Nation, he’s enjoying the great outdoors. Below, he gives us the story behind his gym items.
