On this episode I get to chat with Anne Sheehan about bodybuilding and powerlifting along with many other topics.  Anne has a stellar career as an IFBB pro and is also a world record holder in powerlifting.  This episode holds many great tidbits of information to help on your journey.

This episode is near and dear to my heart.  I been in some very dark places and never want to be there again, but I continue to see aggressive athletes putting themselves in the same place.  They either do not understand some principles of strength or cannot control themselves.  Maybe they just cannot see it or do not want to work on their demons.  Either way I really want to reach these people an...

In this episode I talk with my friend Josh Miller.  He is a powerlifter and coach.  This episode was a blast and ran on for hours.  Ever wonder what two lifters talk about when they sit down together?  Well, here it is. LOL!  We cover so many subjects and topics through this episode and we will definitely have him on again.

Title speaks for itself!

Had the very great opportunity to sit down and talk with incredible lifter Luke Edwards.  This was an awesome interview for me and I hope everyone else enjoys it just half as much as I did!

A quote from the artist Bansky

Since my Co-Host Amber Hansen has the Women Pro Am coming up in a couple weeks we thought we would do a podcast about meal prep; damn it I mean meet prep!  lol  Just listen and you will get the joke on me! lol

In this episode Amber and I discuss another great quote.  One by the immortal Socrates.

This weeks episode we discuss how sometimes in training and in life the answer is to back off.  This goes in life and in training.  Sometimes it is to keep going but doing less.  Sometimes one or more steps backwards leads to a lot of big jumps forward.

In this episode we cover a great quote from Chuck Darwin!

In this episode I get go down a 3 hr rabbit hole with outstanding powerlifter Jeff Johnston.  We both have a lifetime of powerlifting and stories of our journeys.  We talk about so many things I am not going to exhaust my fat fingers typing it out.  It is a long one, but I feel it is well worth the listen because there is some awesome knowledge shared through this episode.  

On this episode we discuss an Instagram post my Matt Vincent of HVIII brands and Not Dead Yet.

This episode we begin by discussing technique in geared vs raw lifting.  If it should stay the same or change.  Amber and I have a bit different perspective on this one, but we always have great discussions when we do have these different perspectives.  We also tend to dive right down the rabbit hole on topics.  This episode is not different! lol  We tend to move on to other topics then somehow br...
