An Unexpected Connection: Training with Jamaine Ortiz

In May 2022, a chance encounter brought FARMERSTRENGTH™ together with rising boxing star Jamaine Ortiz during his vacation in Costa Rica. What started as a manifestation of working with top athletes quickly became reality, as Jamaine joined our training sessions, leaving a lasting impression on both the local boxing community and myself. From intense mountain runs to breathwork sessions overlooking the Costa Rican jungle, Jamaine’s dedication and discipline embodied the spirit of FARMERSTRENGTH™. This experience reaffirmed the power of persistence, passion, and always pushing for that extra level.

Read more about our journey and how a simple connection sparked something truly magical.
