Ara Megerdichian




Ara is a retired military officer and Army Ranger. He’s led some of the toughest and best soldiers in the world, trained Rangers and paratroopers, and taught physical education at the United States Military Academy. He believes in pushing the limits of physical, mental, and emotional endurance to find the strength to turn walls into hurdles: “Every time you find a ceiling…it becomes your next floor – so break through it, stand up, and get ready to drive further.” He’s a husband, a father, and a master coach. “I’ve been very fortunate to have a lot of extremely challenging experiences in my life – it’s part of the journey – and I’ve had to break through a lot of ceilings so my passion is helping others drive through their challenges, learn that boundaries can be crossed, and get stronger in every aspect of their lives: physically, mentally, and spiritually. That’s why I love MTNTOUGH, it’s deeper than just physical training – it’s a 360 degree training plan that opens the door to challenge you on all three dimensions and, over time, teach you the difference between a wall and a hurdle (and hopefully teach you that your boundaries are movable)." Ara holds a Master of Science Degree in Strategic Management from Indiana University’s Kelly School of Business; a Master of Education (Physical Education) from the University of Georgia; a Bachelor of Science degree in Sociology and Criminology from Purdue University; a leadership degree from the Army’s Command and General Staff College (as well as numerous Army leadership schools); and is currently an MBA candidate at Indiana University's Kelly School of Business.
