Hey everyone. Thanks for tuning into Power Athlete Radio.

Training for quote unquote power has become an increasingly sexy adage to strength

Coaches and researchers have been studying the benefits of power-based training as well as how

Dr. Brian Mann, plays an integral part furthering our knowledge of power. Assistant Director

But we have an awesome guest in terms of velocity-based training and world-class strength

coach and just somebody I've been really actually geeking out, you know, following his stuff

and excited to get him on and talk about how to necessarily increase speed, increase athleticism,
