On today’s episode we get to sit down with Andy McCloy, owner of BCI performance down in Huntsville Alabama. Andy is a seasoned veteran in the sports performance world and one of the most well respected individuals I have been fortunate enough to meet. So we spent time discussing his background and how he got to where he is today.

On Today's episode, we get to talk to PPSC Assistant and current Personal Trainer at Biofit Performance in Oviedo Fl, Ben Racke. Ben has been training for years now and not too long ago made one of the biggest leaps to date with his career. In the middle of a pandemic, Ben uprooted his business to move to sunnier weather and build a foundation elsewhere. This is the main premise of what we get to talk about and break down.

On Today’s episode we have PPSC Instructor Tim Danchak to discuss the do’s and don’t’s of building out a home gym. In the last year, more people have been judged closer and closer to pulling the trigger on a sweet home setup. As most of us realize, it’s no so easy when you have X budget and want to still have a badass setup.

Today, we get to sit back down with Dr. Justin Farnsworth and discuss rehab. Throughout years of training and going to rehabilitation for myself, there are a number of myths and legends of rehab I have been told or overheard and needed to get to the bottom of them. Justin is the perfect person to ask with his forward thinking, strength based approach to rehabilitation.

On today’s episode, we have the PPSC director of education Clifton Harski. Clifton is not only one of the most educated individuals I have crossed paths with in regards to training but also one of the best personalities. It only seemed appropriate to talk about his background and how he became who he is today.

On today's podcast we are lucky to have the director of training and programming for Onnit gym in Austin Texas, Juan Leija. Juan has been with Onnit since the beginning from working long hours in the warehouse to finally getting tapped to head up one of the most talked-about gyms in the country. Juan has a diverse background between commercial fitness, private training, and now marrying the big lifts with unconventional training techniques.

One of the most recognizable names in fitness, Eric Leija (Primal Swoldier) took the time to sit down with us while we were teaching in Austin Texas for a LIVE Pain-Free Podcast. We dig deep into Eric's childhood, how he got into fitness, and what he does with his time other than savage workouts while shirtless.

Building your business can be a difficult task no matter if you are starting in the best situation possible or mid-pandemic. If you are looking to find out how to do it RIGHT, we have the perfect guest on today's podcast. Garrett Sawaia isn't just an assistant instructor for the PPSC but a writer and highly successful coach in New England. Garrett has spent time from running some of the most successful commercial fitness gyms to now coaching group classes with high engagement and low attrition thanks to his fundamental skills built over years of practicing the craft.

One of the bigger misconceptions of training is the best trainers out there were trainers from the start. There is no better example of that flaw in judgement than our guest, Lala Duncan, Director of Training and Development for Dogpound. Dogpound is arguably the most talked about facility in NYC and in the US due to their culture, high-end clientele, and rugged gym to upgrade training.

Today, we sit down to discuss the BEST Deadlift of all time. This means we are breaking down if we had one deadlift option for the rest of our lives, what would it be? I mean, not all exercises are meant for everyone. The sooner we figure out how to identify what is best for us and not just randomly selected as best in the public eye, the better off we will be for training for life!
