What's going on, guys? Welcome to another episode of the Boom Boom Performance Podcast. Today's

guest is the one and only Gunner Peterson, the man behind the Hollywood hard body. Gunner Peterson is

very well known because he is the Los Angeles Lakers director of Strength and Endurance. So he is the guy

behind the scenes in the gym training the Los Angeles Lakers,

the professional basketball team.

But he's also really well known because he has trained a ton of different celebrities,

preparing them for movie roles and things as such.

He's also worked with damn near every professional athlete you could possibly work with.

I mean, athletes from the NBA, NHL, NFL, MLB, USTA, professional boxing,

tons of different NCAA sports, and then once again, movie stars. So this guy has been around

the block, so to speak, and he's trained some of the greats. And what we're going to dig into

today is what exceptional coaching is. And it's a really cool interview because, one, Gunner is a character.

And I've heard this before that he is just a funny guy to talk to him to be around.

And you'll get that vibe when you listen to the interview with him because he jokes a lot.

And he makes things very funny, which makes sense of why he's such a successful personal trainer because half a personal

training is being personable. Like if you're not liked, then how are you going to be successful?

But the cool thing about this episode is that you see why he is able to train these celebrities

and professional athletes and train at such a high caliber. And it's not because he knew somebody

and he just wheezzled his way into the industry,

it's because he's extremely good at what he does.

This guy is extremely knowledgeable and he takes training super seriously.

And like he mentions in the podcast, he doesn't want to get out of the gym.
