Episode 9 - It's More Than a Gym

<div>Just another lifting podcast where your host, Sam Johnson,&nbsp; discusses your typical, and not so typical, moments in and outside of the gym as a powerlifter. Sam's guests range from fellow powerlifters to Certified Personal Trainers, avid gym goers, and more.&nbsp; Join us and hear some unique stories from every athlete, what powerlifters face on and off the platform, awkward and sometimes vulgar moments, and our training environments.&nbsp; My goal of this podcast is to share the stories of people who dedicate their time to training - whether that is powerlifting, bodybuilding or another sport - I want to hear about it and share your story. The name of this podcast was originally specified to powerlifting but as each episode has progressed - it encompasses the moments in our training that not many people talk about: the moments that push us to our limits, the moments when training starts to push back.&nbsp; Everyone might have different experiences but I hope the stories shared on this podcast bring those experiences to light and resonates with other lifters.&nbsp; Each episode will be very different so stay tuned!&nbsp;</div>
