Barbell Shrugged

I met Mr. Dean Guedo at the Spartan world championships in Lake Tahoe this year. I was interested to talk to him because himself and a partner started a new company called “Stronger Experts.” This company does a variety of testing on some of the best athletes in the world while simultaneously uploading the data and videos to a platform which qualifies for continuing education credits. Pretty awesome if you need those to keep your certification valid. It’s also great because you don’t have to travel.  Anyway, in this convo I try to bring up a ton of basic meathead-ish questions to shine some light on in his own words. It’s fun to geek out sometimes, but sometimes it’s more fun to chat the basics.  Hope you love it.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/rc-guedo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.

I’ve said it time and time again – these podcasts are my favorites. I love it when we get to answer questions from listeners.   We got to all sorts of questions on this one, and you’ll come out with a take-away regardless of whether you’re a powerlifter, weightlifter, CrossFitter, serious athlete, average Joe, young rookie, or old veteran like me.   And a lot of what we talk about has to do with combining multiple aspects of fitness. It’s 2018, folks! So many people now want to do CrossFit, powerlifting, weightlifting, cardio, bodybuilding – they want to do it all. So check out the podcast to learn a little about combining different types of training… so that you can do what you want.   Travis Mash on Instagram   Please Support Our Sponsors   Savage Barbell Apparel - Save 25% on your first order using the code “Shrugged” at savagebarbell.com/shrugged   Organifi - Save 20% using code: “Shrugged” at organifi.com/shrugged   Join the One Ton Challenge    Registration is LIVE   12 Month Strength training program to increase your snatch, clean, jerk, squat, dead, bench.    Add them up to find your One Ton Total.    The goal is 2,000 pounds for men and 1,200 for women.    http://onetonchallenge.com/join   “What is the One Ton Challenge”   “How Strong is Strong Enough”   “How do I Start the One Ton Challenge”   --------------------------------------------------- Show notes: https://shruggedcollective.com/tbl-qanda ---------------------------------------------------   ► Travel thru Europe with us on the  Shrugged Voyage, more info here: https://www.theshruggedvoyage.com/ ► What is the Shrugged Collective?  Click below for more info: https://youtu.be/iUELlwmn57o ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.

Regan Huckaby is a 4x CrossFit Games Athlete. In 2019 she finished 3rd in the world on Team Invictus. She has competed twice at the CrossFit Games as an individual and two times on a team. Her CrossFit career is even more impressive as she is one of the only competitors to also have a family of 4 in her corner. Being a mom, wife, and professional athlete is not easy. The long hours of training, world travel, and intense schedule make her 2019 trip to the podium even more impressive.

Eleiko is a world-leading supplier of professional weightlifting, powerlifting and strength training equipment. There’s a strong chance you’ve seen an Eleiko bar in a gym at some point and said, “wow, this is really nice!” And then you actively searched for that bar, every time you returned. They are considered the Ferrari of weightlifting equipment. And after spending a week at the facility in Sweden I could not agree more as to why!   The history and energy that floats around the Eleiko facility in Halmstad Sweden is truly unlike anything I have ever experienced before. The process of making a single piece of equipment is so extensive and impressive that it truly looks and feels like a piece of art. I use to love their equipment, but now I am truly obsessed!   CEO Erik Blomberg describes the company’s mission — "We work to make people stronger so they can perform better, in sports and in life." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/rc-eleiko ------------------------------------------------------------------------------   ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.

I recently spent a week in Sweden with Travis while visiting the CEO of Eleiko. The only thing I knew about him at first was that he was the head coach for team USA weightlifting. Then, I found out he had a few world records for powerlifting, a phenomenal Olympic lifting career, and he’s kind of nerd when it comes to training methodology and science.    First thought... I just found a new best friend. Second thought... This dude needs to be on a bigger platform because everyone in the strength and conditioning world should know him. He’s changing the game, putting a twist on traditional methods, and adding a ton to the strength and conditioning community.    Considered the “Louie Simmons” of Olympic Lifting... You. DO NOT. Want. To Miss. This One.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/rc-mash ------------------------------------------------------------------------------   ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe 📲 🎧 Listen to the audio version on the Apple Podcast App or Stitcher for Android Here- http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedApple http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedStitcher Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance shows that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals.  Usually in the gym, but outside as well.
