Episode Details

My friend you’re in for a treat today!

In this episode, we’re bringing back the man, the myth, the LEGEND – Joe Kenn, aka Big House Power.

It’s been so cool watching this guys’ journey over the past 15 years.

From top-tier D1 football S&C coach, to his time in the NFL with the Carolina Panthers, and now to his newest iteration of himself as a strongman coach, Joe is always thinking and learning.

And in this episode, we’re going to dive into a ton of different topics. From strongman comps, to how he’s programming nowadays, to why he’s doing away with “average” velocity in his VBT work, I know you’re going to love this episode.

Let’s do this!

Quotable Quotes:

The art of coaching elite strength is rooted in purposeful intent
