We welcome Austin Andrade, Nicholas Guardione, and Tim Ingram to this episode of Dave Tate's Table Talk Podcast!   Get ready for a powerhouse episode as Dave Tate sits down with two of the strongest rising stars in the sport—Austin "SMASH" Andrade and Nicholas Guardione—alongside their elite coach, Tim Ingram, owner of Heavy Metal Fitness in San Antonio, TX, widely regarded as one of the strongest gyms in America.   At 31 years old and weighing 390 lbs, Austin Andrade has made a massive impact on the Strongman scene. In 2024, he placed 7th at World's Strongest Man and 5th at Strongest Man on Earth, building on wins at the 2023 Shaw Classic and World's Strongest Latino. His highlight reel includes a 1,000 lb deadlift at Giants Live 2024. Proud of his Mexican heritage, Austin is driven to represent both Mexico and the USA on the world stage. Outside the gym, he shares life with his wife, Maisy, and their two dogs, Bruno and Baya. Follow him on Instagram @smash__andrade and YouTube via TheTexasBoys11.   Nicholas Guardione, 30, stands 6'5” and brings both size and skill to the sport. In 2024 alone, he won the Official Strongman Games World Championship, took first at the Arnold Amateur, and placed second at the Shaw Classic Open. His elite lifts include a 410 kg wagon wheel deadlift and a 380 kg log clean and press. Deeply connected to his Italian roots, Nicholas also celebrates a new chapter in life with his wife, Emma. He and Austin document their training and competitions on their shared YouTube channel TheTexasBoys11. Follow Nicholas on Instagram @nickguardione.   At the core of their success is Tim Ingram, the founder of Heavy Metal Fitness. Tim holds a BS in Kinesiology (cum laude) from Texas A&M San Antonio and earned the Distinguished Alumni Award in 2021. Over the past 11 years, he has built a reputation for developing national and world-level athletes in Strongman, powerlifting, and jujitsu. Heavy Metal Fitness has produced an Arnold-qualified Strongman every year since 2016, and Tim takes pride in cultivating talent from the ground up—many of his athletes first learned how to lift within his walls.   Beyond the gym, Tim is a dedicated family man. He is married to Michelle Martinez, and together they raise their two sons, Timmy and Troy Ingram. This family foundation mirrors the values he instills in his training—discipline, loyalty, and perseverance.    Follow Heavy Metal Fitness on IG: @heavymetalfit  Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe to elitefts for more Table Talk episodes with strength sport's most powerful voices.   THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS  Get Started with Your AG1 Starter Kit: https://drinkag1.com/DAVETATE Get 10% OFF Your Next Marek Health Labs (CODE: TABLETALK): https://marekhealth.com/ Get a FREE LMNT Sample Pack: https://partners.drinklmnt.com/free-gift-with-purchase?utm_campaign=agwp&am…   Save Up to $315 at Sleepme: https://sleep.me/tabletalk Get 10% OFF RP Hypertrophy App (CODE: TABLE TALK) :https://go.rpstrength.com/hypertrophy-app/  Get 10% OFF at elitefts (CODE: TABLE TALK): https://www.elitefts.com/  Get 10% OFF at Granite Nutrition (CODE TABLETALK): https://granitenutrition.com/ Save $250 at the Business of Strength Retreat 2025 and use CODE: Elite250 at www.bosretreat.com     SUPPORT THE SHOW    All profits from elitefts Limited Edition Apparel, Table Talk Coffee, and Team elitefts Workouts, Programs, and Training eBooks support Dave Tate's Table Talk Podcast.    elitefts Shop: https://www.elitefts.com/  elitefts IG: https://www.instagram.com/elitefts/    elitefts  Limited Edition Apparel: https://www.elitefts.com/shop/apparel/limited-edition.html

Ryan wrote a song that was inspired by Lexi, called "Worth It" and it is Ryan's love letter to the journey that led him to his soulmate. He says, "Through ups and downs, everyone has a story, and this one has a happy ending!

In this episode, Michelle is joined by Mark Groleau (of Unboring Weddings) to talk about why a rehearsal is a key, necessary part of the wedding. Big Takeaways The whole reason you're having a wedding is because you're getting married! If you are going to have a ceremony, it's crucially important to have a rehearsal. When you rehearse, you set yourself up for an incredibly successful day. Who wants to be figuring it all out at the last minute?  It doesn't have to feel mechanical, beautiful moments happen at rehearsals too. It's great for everyone to say hello, give hugs, and really enjoy reconnecting before the wedding.  Links We Referenced https://www.unboringweddingacademy.com/bigwedding (discount!) https://www.instagram.com/unboringwedding The Big Wedding Planning Podcast is...
