SHR # 2428 :: BEST OF: Seeing The Bigger Picture - Sustainable Strength Gains - Wade Johnson - This show was not Coach Johnson's first appearance on SHR. He first appeared in early 2006. This show aired in March of 2007. I've know Wade for a lot longer than I've been doing the podcast so it was a comfortable chat as I was still a little stiff behind the mic. I don't even have any of the old notes OR SHOW DESCRIPTION SINCE ITS LONG BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SERVER. Its about getting strong and staying strong and in light of the fact that Coach Wade keeps winning medals in Olympic lifting (his new love) and PowerLifting (his original love) at his advanced old-ass age (I can say that because I'm older than him.. just call me dirt) I think you should listen to this interview every day for a week because if that old proof pudding thing is real, he knows stuff because he's not slowing down.

So many women don't realize their birth control is doing many of the same things performance enhancing drugs are doing.

Being appreciative of that defines how well you really like yourself, and not your father.
