It’s been some time since our last aired episode! But…so much has happened since then, both personally and professionally. In this episode we take a few minutes to catch you all up and share what’s been going on! We’re excited to be back and look forward to bringing some really awesome episodes to you all.
In this very long overdue podcast, we chat with our favorite Physical Therapist Jon Herting, partner of The Training Room in Garnet Valley, PA. He holds a number of certifications that we won’t get into but rest assured, he knows his stuff!
Jon’s holistic approach to rehab is the number one reason why we continue to recommend him and his team at The Training Room to all of our athletes. With over 10 years of training experience and knowledge, Jon offers a refreshing take on physical therapy and in this episode we talk to him about the misconceptions surrounding what PT is and who actually needs it. We also chat about ways strength coaches and PTs can work together to help bridge the gap and create a better overall experience for our clients.
Jon is one of the nicest humans around and we’re so very thankful that we found him. If you live in the area and are looking for a quality PT, we strongly encourage you to reach out to Jon’s office to set up an appointment at 484-800-8166.
Thanks for listening!
Greg Robins and Tony Bonvechio, Co-owners of the Strength House, originally started their business via their online strength training clients in 2013 and have been successful enough to now make their dreams a reality. Opening in the fall of 2017, The Strength House now serves as Worcester's top strength training facility, specializing in powerlifting, strength training and sports performance. Greg and Tony have created something very special not only within the four walls of the gym, but across the strength training industry as well. (Make sure to give their own podcast a listen too!)
In this episode, we chat with Greg, Tony and Nancy Newell, their Director of Sports Performance, about the initial stages of building The Strength House as well as how they ensure each of them are performing the appropriate tasks, something they refer to as "Delegate to Elevate". Although The Strength House has only been open a short time, they've already been able to create their own unique culture which embodies everything that Greg and Tony envisioned....which is by no means an easy task.
This is a great episode about taking a vision, working hard and making it your own reality! So happy for you guys and can't wait to make another visit!
Primal Supply Meats is a Philadelphia based butchery, founded by Heather Marold Thomason and Cecilie May in 2016. Heather and Cecilie may have different backgrounds but their love of food and their craft brought them together, and oh we're so lucky!
Primal Supply Meats has partnered with more than a dozen local farmers in order to provide Philadelphia restaurants and home chefs with quality pasture-raised meats. Starting with a Butcher's Club (in which Warhorse is a proud drop off location), Heather and Cecilie were able to open a beautiful butcher's shop in 2018, located on East Passyunk Avenue in South Philly.
In this episode, we hear from both Heather and Cecilie as to what ultimately drew them to butchery, the importance of creating meaningful relationships, as well as the significance of what they're doing not only to us as the consumer, but to the farmer's and their land.
Please either head down to their new shop in South Philly or go to www.primalsupplymeats.com for more information! You will not be disappointed!
***Also, this was the first time recording with four microphones. What we didn't realize was that the additional two microphones would take up more space on the SD card...close call on this one!***
Like most people, Sean Collins wasn't happy in his HR corporate job and was searching for something that would give him more fulfillment in life. Sean ended up joining his local CrossFit gym, Crow Hill CrossFit, and instantly fell in love with powerlifting. After dedicating himself to the community at Crow Hill CrossFit, he was offered a full time coaching position there. Soon after Sean, along with his partner Kurt Roderick, started Murder of Crows Barbell Club right next door in a 4000 square foot space. Sean and Kurt now operate NYC's largest dedicated barbell training facility specializing in Powerlifting and Olympic Weightlifting.
In this episode, we talk with Sean and his wife Kayleigh about the struggles of entrepreneurship as a couple, Sean's love for the sport of Powerlifting, as well as how Sean was able to help his community get through a very sad and tragic loss of a dear friend and member. We also ask Kayleigh why she refers to Sean as the Grinch :)
We hope you enjoy this episode and the lovely sounds of Brooklyn! If you're ever in NYC, make sure to stop by and say what's up to Sean and the rest of the amazing people at Murder of Crows Barbell Club!
