DOUG EGGE

Mind Pump Producer

Doug Egge’s journey into fitness was sparked by watching Rocky movies. But instead of dramatically jogging up steps in Philadelphia to Bill Conti’s “Gonna Fly Now,” he did what any sane man would do: skipped cardio and hit the weights. Doug hired Sal as his trainer, and soon after they began creating digital fitness content.

This collaboration, along with partnerships with Adam and Justin, led to the formation of Mind Pump, where Doug wears more hats than Pharrell at fashion week. If Mind Pump were to do a Behind-the-Scenes video, it would be one long shot of Doug doing Doug stuff. And even then, despite moving in the shadows – managing production, finances, and merchandise – he’s still found a way to capture the hearts of listeners.

When Doug’s not at his computer doing work no one even knew existed, he’s learning about Japanese culture, studying the language, practicing calligraphy, and collecting samurai swords that he swears (and I suppose we will all just have to hold our breath and take his word for it) are just for show.
