About Dustin

Dustin

Dustin Diefenderfer is the founder of MTNTOUGH — a global fitness movement known for building resilient warriors mentally, physically, and spiritually. Additionally, he is pushing Men forward with his #1 Mindset podcast, The MTNTOUGH Podcast. He’s trained elite military operators, wildland firefighters, and driven civilians to peak performance in the backcountry and beyond.

But The Sword isn’t about reps or rucks — it’s about calling.

Dustin built The Sword for those hungry to live out their God-given mission. Drawing from decades of wilderness discipline, military partnership, business leadership, and personal spiritual growth, Dustin now walks beside a few hand-selected men each year.

He’s not interested in likes, trends, or status. He’s interested in legacy.
