No man exemplifies peak performance better than Dusty. He tears it up on the field, parties like a goddamn champion, and makes it look easy. While few on God’s green earth will ever know what it’s like to be one of the greatest AFL players of this generation, you can now get a taste of the Dustin Martin lifestyle with DRIP: a brand new all-in-one fitness app launched by the man himself (eat your heart out, Hemsworth).
In the wake of the Brownlow Medallist and three-time premiership player’s return from injury with Richmond Football Club, Dustin Martin has launched this “AI-powered fitness solution” to provide everyday punters with the same top-tier coaching that made him the world-class athlete we know and love today via app.
Developed over the course of 18 months by Michael & Maria Kathopoulis – the creators behind award-winning soccer training app On The Ball Global (see: here) – in partnership with Dustin’s manager Ralph Carr, DRIP has enlisted elite sports scientists and personal trainers to cater for all goals and fitness levels.

DRIP features customisable workouts to help users unlock their full potential. Ranging from HIIT, cardio, strength, weight-loss, boxing, to yoga and pilates, there’s truly something for everyone. Dusty himself has reportedly delivered 80% of the programs and workouts.
“I want to motivate and guide people to reach their fitness goals and become the best they can be in life,” said Dustin Martin.
“I’ve always been passionate about health and fitness, and to have the opportunity to share things I’ve learnt and help others achieve their goals really excites me.”
Although DRIP isn’t just about the physical. The inclusion of mindfulness and something known as “energy coaching” was a priority for Dusty considering how he’s “benefitted greatly” from both in a personal and professional sense. We’re talking life affirmations, sleep science, stress + anxiety reduction, focus + attention boosts, as well as, uh… “building energy.”

“To me, mindfulness is something you have to be disciplined with and work on –- it’s a skill
just like learning to kick a football.”
“There are so many different ways to do meditations and mindfulness. It could just be going for a walk, exercising or playing with your kids, whatever you are doing. Just be present.”
Exercises you won’t find on the Dustin Martin fitness app, however, include the following:
- 65-day laps around the world before picking up your car at the MCG (endurance)
- 3 AM meditation around some random bloke’s backyard table (mind)
- Beer slab carries (strength)
