How I Fought Off a Rare Blood Disorder and Changed My Life Featuring Adam Krueger
Show Notes

On this episode, Joey Stanizzi and Dylan Schuett interview Adam Krueger, a driven and passionate individual, with multiple businesses and huge goals; however, it wasn't always that way.

Krueger grew up with two deficiencies. One was a growth hormone deficiency where his body couldn't produce enough growth hormone to naturally grow, and if having that wasn't enough, he was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder called Neutropenia. Only 0.000006 people have it and Krueger was forced into this battle through his early years. Neutropenia is an abnormally low number of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) in the blood. Neutropenia, if severe, significantly increases the risk of life-threatening infection.

After years of fighting deficiencies and bullying, he hit a point of time in his life where he experienced depression. He needed to find a purpose. That was when he turned to fitness after his crazy opportunity to spend time with Greg O'Gallagher, which we talk about during the interview.

He now has multiple businesses geared towards improving your life. You can follow his accounts: @adamkrueger_ and @xtensivepotential
