Josh Washington is a S&C Coach with the University of Auburn men's basketball team where he helped the program make the Final Four in 2019. He has previous experience with the Sacramento Kings, University of Stanford and Marquette.

Like Josh, I started my post-college career working in a field that had nothing to do with exercise science. We both made our way to this field through self-discovery and a love of training and even both had our cars totaled/stolen while in grad school. I loved hearing Josh detail his journey and be challenged by the likes of Dr. Ramsey Nijem and Cory Schlesinger. His insights on asking questions and challenging the status quo were particularly poignant for me as I think that is the mindset we all need to have to evolve the profession.

Having met Josh last year the Bay Area Sports Symposium, I saw Josh's passion during the roundtable that featured the entire Sacramento King's staff and knew I had to get him on the show. Josh has had some big moments in his career already and has met all of them with that same passion. His authenticity and care for the craft has set in motion what is sure to be a memorable career in S&C.
