Fortnite, Chinese Manufacturers & 24-Hour Workouts - Shiv Simani | Coffee Pump (E097)

8 Jun 2026 · 2 h 05 min · S1 E97

Konnichiwa Fam, On E097, I sit down with Shiv Simani for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had around fitness, discipline, addiction, business, and figuring yourself out as a man. Shiv opens up about his journey from partying, smoking, drunk fights, and reckless living, to completely transforming his life through fitness, Muay Thai, CrossFit, and entrepreneurship. On this episode we talk about:

- His upbringing, sports background, and gaming culture

- Working at Tribe Hotel and leaving employment behind

- Quitting smoking and alcohol through Muay Thai and fitness

- Bodybuilding, CrossFit, Hyrox, steroids, peptides, and nutrition

- His insane 24-hour workout challenge

- Building Just Gym It and growing through social media

- Men’s mental health, discipline, and personal growth

- Kenya’s fitness industry and business opportunities

- Weed, spirituality, religion, and conspiracy theories

- The Red Pill movement and modern masculinity

We also get into movies, books, gaming, Kenyan politics, boda bodas, relationships, and navigating life as a creative entrepreneur in Kenya.

And much, much more.

Hope you enjoy the episode.

Best,

Team Coffee Pump
