Welcome back to the Strong Life podcast. This is your host, Zach Evanesh. And in this episode,

0:05.9

we have Iron Roots, episode 19, and this is part three of a seven-part series, where I sit

0:13.9

down and interview Mr. Jan Dellinger. For those of you who missed the previous episodes,

0:19.7

there's two ways I would really recommend.

0:21.7

1:17.4

spin-offs of what was created well, well before I was born. And I'm 49 and a half. And so

1:23.8

honoring those that came before us is very important.

1:27.5

I think it's also not just out of respect, but it's ethically important in a strength industry

1:33.9

where there's not as many as much ethics as we would like to see.

1:39.0

And also for learning, for knowledge, for gaining a deeper understanding,

1:43.0

whether you're a strength coach or a

1:44.7

strength athlete or a father of athletes, understanding the reasoning behind these training methods
