Ep 600: The Immortal Strength of Louie Simmons Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

Legends are born but legends never die. Louie Simmons lives on through the strength he developed in others. A cherished conversation with the Westside Barbell founder just weeks before he passed is an honor…and one we are stoked to share with you.
Louie Simmons changed lifting. His methodology, his equipment, his attitude. His home of freakishly strong men and women is a mecca in the heart of Ohio. His spirit continues to light the fire in so many who pull and push every day.

Ep 596: Shame is a Hell of a Motivator Mar 25, 2022

Show notes

What motivates you? It seems to me that each athlete is motivated by driving forces that uniquely play to their greatest fears. While the experiences that shaped those fears may be as varied as the individual themself, common themes can be observed across the board. Get John and Tex’s take on motivating factors in this week’s conversation.
Motivation can come in a lot of forms. Some of it is as transparent and shallow as the carefully chosen filter used to promote it. When it comes to consistently driving performance, what sticks? What do the most proficient athletes feed on to commit to their training day in and day out? This week we dive into just that with a talk dedicated to motivation.
