The Internet Fitness Star Talks Sports, Tech, and Trolling

Throw Like A Girl

Throwing a football with precision can take years of practice, as even the greatest quarterbacks of all time spent decades honing their skills. But for internet sensation Callie Bundy, that talent came naturally. Best known for her “trick shot” videos, in which she makes unbelievable throws from long distances, Bundy has amassed hundreds of thousands of views online.

A typical video on Bundy’s YouTube channel will feature her doing everything from throwing a football into a basketball hoop from the other end of the court to firing a perfect spiral through an airborne hula hoop. Describing herself as an “ex-jock who just likes throwing things,” Callie Bundy provides jaw-dropping recordings of her unique talent to her thousands of subscribers, dismantling long-held stereotypes about women’s ability on the gridiron. We spoke with Bundy about her sports background, the evolution of her trick shots, and if she would sign a contract with the Legends Football League if offered.

Innovation & Tech Today: Can you give our audience a little bit of background about your story? You’re an ex-jock?

Callie Bundy: Yeah, exactly! I played sports my whole life. I played soccer, basketball, softball in college. I went on to coach. And then from there, as a female, there’s not too many [ways] to keep playing sports, so that’s when I got into fitness.

I&T Today: What is your secret to getting to that level of physique other than hard work and a good diet? Is there anything special you do with your diet or supplementation?
