Steven Y. Migridichian

Founder & CEO

Steven Migridichian is Founder and CEO of American Stallion, a premier holistic fitness and performance company dedicated to helping high-income, high-responsibility men achieve exceptional physical results without sacrificing their careers, families, or lifestyles.

With a background in athletic combat performance, animal-based nutrition, and extreme human optimization against all odds, Steven developed a results-driven method designed specifically for successful men who value discipline, personal excellence, and a high standard of living. His approach combines tailored training, strategic nutrition, recovery optimization, and medical oversight to deliver transformations that are efficient, sustainable, and measurable.

Under Steven’s leadership, American Stallion has guided more than 1,000 executives, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders to elite levels of fitness—regaining strength, aesthetics, and confidence they thought were out of reach.

His mission is simple: To help high-performing American men look and feel as powerful as the lives they’ve built.

Steven is committed to elevating the standard for modern American Men by bridging professional success with peak physical performance.

He calls it “A Rite of Passage”.

A man’s body should match his income, his values, and his potential.

He believes a strong America only comes from strong men—men who lead, protect, and provide with confidence, discipline, and physical power.

When he’s not coaching ELITE clients, Steven is training for Iron Man, other Ultra’s, farming, or networking globally to refine new methods for his members.

Nicholas DiReda, PhD

CSO & Director of Human Performance

Dr. Nick serves as Chief Scientific Officer at American Stallion, where he bridges elite-level science with real-world execution to optimize the health, performance, and longevity of high-achieving men nationwide.

He holds a PhD from Cornell University, with advanced training in thermodynamics and immunology—the foundation of his systems-based approach to inflammation control, metabolic efficiency, immune resilience, and long-term disease prevention. His work centers on identifying root causes, not managing symptoms.

A former NCAA Division I athlete, Dr. Nick brings a performance-first mindset to every protocol. His mission is personal. After being diagnosed with an autoimmune joint disease, he spent years navigating the failures of conventional medicine before successfully putting his condition into remission through targeted lifestyle, nutritional, and infectious-trigger interventions. That experience reshaped his understanding of health and solidified his commitment to truly personalized optimization.

Since then, Dr. Nick has helped connect countless men—many facing autoimmune, inflammatory, or complex chronic issues—to elite private-practice physicians across the country who deliver individualized, results-driven care.

He is a Certified Functional Medicine Health Consultant, Nutritionist, and CrossFit Level 2 Trainer, with hands-on experience in advanced regenerative and performance therapies, including stem cell treatments, IV nutrient infusions, peptide protocols, and hormone optimization.

At American Stallion, Dr. Nick oversees national medical partnerships and scientific strategy, ensuring every client has access to precision-based programs that may include functional medicine analysis, supplementation, peptide and hormone therapies, and cutting-edge performance interventions—executed with discipline, intent, and accountability.

This is science with teeth. Built for men who refuse to decline.

David Smith, MD

Director of Regenerative Medicine & Biological Enhancement

Dr. Dave isn’t your typical physician. He’s a double board-certified emergency medicine doctor forged in the chaos of trauma rooms — the place where seconds matter and human resilience is tested daily. After years on the front lines saving 1000’s of lives, he took that same precision, intensity, and mastery of the human body and redirected it into something far more powerful: regenerative performance medicine. Today, Dr. Dave operates at the intersection of science, longevity, and elite human performance. His mission isn’t to merely treat symptoms — it’s to rebuild Men into stronger, more capable versions of themselves. Using cutting-edge restorative therapies — stem cell joint injections, PRP, and Advanced Pulse Wave technology — he activates the body’s own healing mechanisms to regenerate tissue, eliminate pain, restore function, and elevate physical output. This is real medicine for people who refuse to settle for average. But what makes Dr. Dave truly different is the philosophy behind his work: the integration of spirit, mind, and body into one unified performance system. Alongside advanced procedures, he builds full-spectrum transformation programs through:

    • Animal-based, performance-driven nutrition
    • Functional strength, mobility, and endurance training
    • Mindset and lifestyle engineering for long-term vitality

This is not “wellness.” This is reconstruction — a full-body, full-life upgrade designed for HIGH-level individuals. And this is where American Stallion stands alone. American Stallion is the only coaching organization that combines elite regenerative medical solutions with high-performance coaching, animal-based nutrition, strength training, and lifestyle mastery — all under one unified system. No other program in the world marries medical-grade regeneration with world-class fitness coaching and real physical transformation. This integration makes American Stallion the New Standard for men who want to feel younger, move better, perform stronger, and live at their absolute peak. An elite athlete himself, Dr. Dave lives the lifestyle he teaches. His own dedication to strength, endurance, and holistic health fuels his passion: guiding others to reclaim power, confidence, and longevity. Whether it’s a competitor returning from injury or a man who simply wants to restore his energy and vitality, Dr. Dave approaches every case with the same goal: build the strongest, most vibrant, most unstoppable version of the human standing in front of him. Regenerative medicine. High-performance living. Total vitality.This is the future — and Dr. Dave brings it to American Stallion, the only place you’ll find it.

Reid Lentz

Master Fitness Specialist

Reid Lentz brings a rare mix of elite leadership experience and iron discipline to American Stallion. With 15+ years leading global technology teams and building two high-performance companies—a technology consultancy and a regenerative health firm—Reid has lived his entire career at the crossroads of execution, excellence, and results.

For more than a decade, he’s trained relentlessly in CrossFit, Olympic weightlifting, and Spartan racing. Not because it’s convenient. Not because his schedule makes it easy. But because he refuses to buy into the lie that powerful men must choose between peak fitness and peak career performance. Reid is living proof that you can dominate in the boardroom and under the barbell.

At American Stallion, Reid coaches high-level men who expect more from themselves and demand real, measurable progress. He understands that the discipline required to lead teams at the highest level is the same discipline required to build a body that reflects strength, confidence, and intention. His mission is simple: show men what becomes possible when they stop negotiating with their potential and commit fully to the process.

Christopher Larson

Senior Fitness Specialist

Coach Chris brings over three decades of battle-tested experience in the fitness world, specializing in full-body transformations for elite, high-performing clients. He earned his Fellowship of Applied Functional Science (FAFS) from the Gray Institute in 2012 — an intensive, year-long immersion into the mechanics of real human movement that only a small percentage of coaches ever complete.

Chris’ gift is turning complex transformation journeys into clear, sustainable systems. His mastery of movement, mobility, and injury-prevention makes him a cornerstone of the American Stallion philosophy: strong, functional, capable men who can dominate in and out of the gym.

Even in his 50s, Chris maintains single-digit body fat year-round — living proof of the discipline and longevity he teaches. After decades in the industry, he’s earned a reputation as a true legend among trainers, and he now brings that hard-won wisdom to every client inside the American Stallion program.
