American Ninja Warrior 13
Youst first competed on ANW13, in the first episode of qualifying. There, he failed V Formation, but placed 8th and moved on to the Semi-Finals. He competed in the first episode of Semi-Finals and was the first runner of the episode. He made it to Split Decision, where he chose and failed Inverter. This was good enough to place 9th overall.

On Stage 1, he was once again the first runner shown. He made it through the first 6 obstacles, and although he pressed the button for The High Road, he opted out of it. However time caught up to him on the Fly Hooks, where he ultimately ran out of time on the cargo net.

He also entered the American Ninja Warrior: Obstacle Design Challenge, an obstacle he submitted, named Stalactites, was chosen and used as the second obstacle in Stage 3. However, he didn't get to attempt his own obstacle, as he had failed in Stage 1.
