Joining me today was none other than Philadelphia Barbell Head Coach, Jim Rutter.  

Jim Rutter is a Senior International Weightlifting Coach for USA Weightlifting. He is a Masters American Record holder and he is the author of the book, "The Sport is Steroids".   

This book is incredible! If you are a weightlifter and following the issues surrounding our sport please go check out this book! It follows the life of weightlifter, Pat Mendes and his pursuit for greatness in weightlifting. It covers a lot of rules and how other countries deal with doping (or don't deal with it) How we in the USA deal with athletes and the issues with testing for our sport and most sports.  

Head to thesportissteroids.com to pick up your copy or you can head over to Amazon:
