Philosophical Weightlifting Podcast

Sean has seen it all, done it all, and now passes that on to his athletes. He started with rugby and ended up training as a professional weightlifter with team MDUSA before it dissolved. During this podcast, we discuss his time before, during, and after Muscle Driver, covering the decisions he made that ultimately changed his life and made it what it is today.Enjoy.Sean's social:https://www.instagram.com/seanmrigsby/?hl=enhttps://www.heavymetalbarbellclub.com/My social:https://www.instagram.com/josh_philwl/

This was an incredible episode of the podcast, spurred on by Kevin's Patreon content (https://www.patreon.com/PrecisionPowerlifting). After watching all of his videos on his coaching philosophy, how to use accommodating resistance, and the role of max effort lifts in a training program, we mustered up a great conversation on why he does what he does and how his coaching process/methods have changed over the years. We plan on doing a series of these podcasts to more thoroughly cover why he does what he does and why it's changed.

I am back with another episode of the podcast and today I have something a little different. I mostly record shows focused on discussing the nuances of programming, how to improve training outcomes, an athlete's career, etc., but after listening to Danny's recent podcast series on veganism I thought it'd be great to have him on for a chat. We discuss the ethics, global impact, and nutritional consequences of consuming/not consuming animal products. I try to take an unbiased stance as the interviewer and pick Danny's brain on his perspective as nutrition expert and someone who been having the conversation with other experts.
