Meet the Team Part 5/6: Ben Pauli

Ben (Coach P) brings an extensive list of experience to RPG, and he has helped shape a real culture of success here at the facility from day one! With over 15 years in the coaching field, Ben has trained everyone from the greenest of athlete all the way to the very best lifters on the planet (literally). He has a passion for coaching strength & conditioning for powerlifters, strongman and combat sports athletes…and by passion, we mean he lives and breathes this profession.

Ben earned a B.S. in Exercise Science from CMU with a strong background in biomechanics, athletic performance, speed development, and strength & conditioning. In college, he was also a defensive end and linebacker at Olivet, as well as Mixed Martial Arts athlete and coach. Ben’s curiosity, passion for learning, and creativeness make him an asset to all of RPG’s members.
 
In addition to being the Athletic Performance Director here at RPG, he is currently the owner/operator of Michigan BarBenders LLC and Coaching Revolution.

Meet the Team Part 4/6: Conan Stoehr

The “Gym Dad,” Conan Stoehr, brings nearly 40 years of lifting experience to RPG specializing in strength development for powerlifters, first responders, and driven beginners. As a competitive lifter (raw and equipped), Conan has posted a 2,280 lb total, including a 1,008 lb squat at age 49.

Conan is known for blending old-school training wisdom with modern programming methods, including conjugate, linear progression, and sport-specific periodization. He has coached clients across all levels—raw lifters, equipped lifters, law enforcement, young athletes, and beginners looking to build a strong foundation.
 
Conan is currently seeking dedicated lifters who want structured programming, honest feedback, and a clear path to getting strong safely and sustainably.

Meet the Team Part 3/6: Candida Turner

Candida has been part of the RPG family for nearly 7 years now, coming on the coaching staff in early 2024. Having participated in 11 powerlifting meets, she has racked up 1000+ lb totals in 3 weight classes, along with a bunch of national records.
 
In April 2024, Candida was certified as a Functional Range Conditioning Mobility Specialist (FRCms) and is continually experimenting with new ways to incorporate those concepts into her own lifting and recovery. One of her favorite things to do is take what she has learned to figure out how to adapt an exercise or movement pattern to make it possible for anyone to do.
 
She is ready to help you with your mobility, strength, conditioning, or general health goals and offers in person coaching, remote coaching and programming options.
