Ep 590: Founder of Husker Power & the NSCA Boyd Epley Mar 04, 2022

Show notes

What was sport before carefully planned strength and conditioning programs existed? What was it like when the only athletes you saw in the weight room were the injured ones? Few people remember the days when training for any sport was comprised of little more than running long distance. But Boyd Epley not only remembers it vividly, but he was part of a pioneering few who actually reformed this broken system. He’s a god at the University of Nebraska and a founder of the NSCA.
Boyd Epley, legendary strength coach hailing from the University of Nebraska changed the game. Literally. He was able to convey the importance of power over conditioning for football players, which was not an easy fight. What followed was some of the most dominant performances the sport had ever seen and proof that Boyd was onto something big. Soon, universities the nation over would be attempting to replicate his program.

Ep 588: Hypertrophy Controversy Solved! w/ Antionio Squillante Feb 25, 2022

Show notes

It’s been a long time since we visited the biological principles of strength development. If you are a new coach, a student, or a curious athlete, this episode is vital to understanding some of the more complex concepts of human performance, like rate of force development, compensatory accelleration, hypertrophy, post activation potentiation, and so much more. A huge thank you to our guest, Antonio Squillan for making these digestable even for the Power Athlete meathead.
Exploring the science behind strength and power development is what Antonio Squillan does best. Somehow he was able to make time for John and Tex while getting his PhD at USC. The only thing more impressive than Antonio’s coaching background is his expertise in human performance.

Ep 586: Matt Vincent: Lover and HVIII-er Feb 18, 2022

Show notes

How can I describe Matt Vincent? While he’s crazy strong and built his reputation on being a Highland Games World Champion, he’s evolved. This is what we love so much about Matt. He’s an adventurer, a philosopher, and ever curious. Disproving the moniker of “meathead”, Matt’s always looking for ways to expand his mind and body in the most accessible ways. Get to know him in this week’s chat.
A conversation between John Welbourn and Matt Vincent is like a confusing, yet entertaining, web of deep thoughts, conspiracy theories, some legitimate strength and conditioning advice, and personal confessions. When you get two people like them, who are as curious about this rapidly changing world as they are, the discussion never disappoints.
