  • WSBB - that’s it

    Four letters which are synonymous with strength WSBB. If you want to learn about strength this is one of many avenues WSBB provides. If you visit their website they have many other recourse or their YouTube. But on the podcast you get a true inside listen to the WSBB mindset.

  • GOAT

    One of the greatest strength coaches of all time. Hope to preserve these recordings and of course all his books so we don’t forget all the science and break throughs Louie both found and invented.
