Kinesiology student at Samford University Ian Andersen (@the_lift_doctor on IG/TikTok) sat down with Will to discuss his interesting and inspirational story with fitness. They share the benefits of the barbell on mental health and wellness, as strength training brought them both out of mentally bad places in their lives. They also talk about the transition many lifters make from general fitness into powerlifting and/or Olympic lifting and the benefits of that.
