What’s it really like behind the scenes as a strength coach in professional baseball? In this episode, Casey Lee talks with Kevin Guild, Vermonter, gym owner, and former strength coach with the Oakland Athletics organization. Kevin shares his path from Division III pitcher to pro sports, the challenges of job security and constant travel, and why he ultimately chose to step away from Major League Baseball to build SOMA Fitness in South Burlington, Vermont. Along the way, he highlights the lessons he carried from the A’s into his own business—leadership, culture, and long-term athlete development—that now shape how he serves clients and staff in the private sector.
