In this episode, we sit down with David Abernethy, high-profile strength coach, athlete, and co-founder of Tsunami Barbell. With nearly 25 years of experience as a college athlete and coach at schools like Methodist, Western Carolina, Clemson, Ole Miss, Western Kentucky, and Furman, David has shaped the performance of countless athletes — from Eli Manning to future pros across multiple sports.

We dive into:
 • The coaching journey from college sidelines to building Tsunami Barbell
 • Working with legends, including the Harbaugh family and Louie Simmons’ influence
 • The Speed Force Max Training System and Iron Disciples nonprofit
 • How fascia training, AR, and oscillation improve performance
 • Conjugate principles in the weight room and training that actually carries over to sport
 • Building accountable athletes, longevity in coaching, and the art of finding an edge

David shares wisdom on maximizing athletic potential, balancing innovation with fundamentals, and what it takes to stay passionate across decades in coaching.
