Make America Strong: How This Marine Is Bringing Strength, Jobs & Grit Back To America | Grant Broggi | Ep. 65



When COVID shut down his gyms, Grant pivoted and launched an American-made barbell and plates company, proving once again that Marines adapt and overcome. Major Grant Broggi is a Marine officer, founder of The Strength Co., Starting Strength Coach, and American entrepreneur.

Grant shares his story of growing up near Parris Island, choosing the Marine Corps after 9/11, and discovering the lifelong connection between faith, discipline, and strength. From his days at The Citadel to leading Marines in combat zones, Grant reflects on how hardship builds leaders and why strength training is more than just lifting weights—it’s about confidence, resilience, and culture.
