🎙️ Welcome to a new episode of the Dad Up Podcast!

🟫 From Fatherhood To The Ninja Warrior Stage| Featuring Brian Beckstrand and Bryan Ward | Ep. 301

👉 This week on Dad Up, I’m joined by Brian Beckstrand. He is a husband, father of five, and the original ninja dad behind one of the most inspiring families to ever hit the American Ninja Warrior course.

👉 What started as a backyard obstacle setup to keep his kids active has become something far greater, a family mission.

👉 Since Brian’s debut on American Ninja Warrior in 2013, the Beckstrand family has turned ninja into their family language, their bond, and their shared legacy.

👉 With four of his children and his wife now competing on the national stage, Brian steps back to the sidelines this season to cheer on 16-year-old Baylee as she makes her ANW debut in Season 17.

👉 But this story isn’t just about strength and agility, it’s about parenting with intention, building connection through challenge, and inspiring families to chase greatness together.

👉 Brian also shares how they’ve expanded their passion by opening two Ninja Fitness gyms in Southern Utah, empowering hundreds of other families to discover the power of movement, mindset, and unity.

👉 Tune in as we dive into how ninja became more than a sport, it became the heartbeat of a legacy.
