Today, we introduce our newest Process Programming coach, Mark McDermott, who among other things, is strong as F*CK. If you can find the video of your very first barbell snatch, chances are you are watching it in complete embarrassment. The lack of coordination. The struggle to squat low. The bar swinging above your head. Well, for Mark, his first snatch session ended with 90kg! He owes this natural talent to years of competitive gymnastics and the mobility and positional strength he benefitted from it. Also, Ed relates this to his childhood of playing clarinet. How does it relate to strength sport? We’re really not sure. But find out now! OUR LISTENER SURVEY IS LIVE! TAKE FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN A FREE PROCESS TEE!
