I was super excited about the chance to sit down and talk throwing and plenty more with Throw Bros. Sponsored Athlete and former World Record Holder Jarvina Routt. She's been on my list of folks to chat with for a while, and she didn't disappoint!

Start to finish, an excellent conversation with Pro Athlete and Sacramento State Throws Coach Kyle Lillie. We get into it all: the difference between throwing in college and throwing next to the beer tent, wire hammer vs. scottish, drinking after throwing tantrums, and philosophy for throwing/lifting training.  Fraternity of Giants - use code 'heavylight' to save 10% Heavy/Light Programming Throw Bros. - use code 'heavylight' to save 10%

Chungus Training w/ Garrett Blatnik

After taking questions about Braemar and open stone on social media, I take part in the time-honored tradition of drinking just enough to slur and make no sense, then turning on the microphone.

Results and Robert the Rock

In one of my trips down YouTube memory lane, I stumble across two things: 1) musical brilliance, and 2) my old gear load out. I take the opportunity to go through common gear questions and how my load out has progressed over the years.
