Big shoutout to Darren “The Kobra” Coleman!
One of my favorite parts of coaching is getting to work with high-level athletes, whether that's professional MMA fighters, wrestlers, powerlifters, or endurance athletes.
Working with guys like Darren is especially rewarding because they're already putting in a ton of work outside the weight room. My job is to make sure what we're doing in the gym actually helps them perform better without beating them into the ground.
There's a lot more to training athletes than just making them stronger or putting them through brutal workouts. You have to understand the demands of their sport, what they're already doing, and how much they can realistically recover from.
It's been awesome getting to work with Darren and play a small part in his career. Looking forward to seeing what he does on November 14th!
