Most college strength programs are actively making their athletes slower and weaker. I had another kid go to a D1 school with a 425-pound bench and come back only able to press 345. Elite strength coach and Westside Barbell disciple Jared Bidne is destroying the traditional, over-complicated sports performance model by proving that elite speed is built through brutal simplicity and high muscular tension. INSIDE THE EPISODE: The Death of Transfer: Why a 600-pound squat means absolutely nothing if your athlete cannot jump over a doormat. The 0.6 m/s Rule: How tracking precise bar speed on low box squats serves as the ultimate predictor for a 4.4-second 40-yard dash. The Track-Sprinting Trap: Why sending your football players to run track in the off-season is actually destroying their starting power. The Dumbbell Jump Protocol: Inside the auto-regulated, heavy-light vertical jump method that has produced forty-six 40-plus inch verticals. MEET THE GUEST: Jared Bidne is the owner and head coach of Explosive Mechanics, a private, athlete-only training facility he has operated for over 17 years. A Distinguished CSCS and Westside Barbell certified coach who learned directly under Louie Simmons, Bidne has developed a reputation for rescuing elite athletes from the detraining effects of collegiate programs. By stripping away traditional fads and focusing strictly on muscular tension and rate of force development, he has coached over 200 athletes to Division 1 scholarships, trained multiple IPF world record holders, and weaponized a proprietary dumbbell-jump system to systematically build world-class speed and power.

To dominate the platform, you have to survive the lifestyle that builds it. For over a decade, Matt Sharafinski chased the limits of human strength, moving through weight classes and dismantling standard programming until his body forced a brutal reckoning with reality. From running a thermos of alcohol into high school classes to maxing out medical breathing machines just to survive the night, his obsession with the barbell became a masterclass in psychological warfare and physiological survival. INSIDE THE EPISODE: The Illusion of the 2,000-lb Total: Why the numbers on Open Powerlifting never tell the true story of a lifter's peak capability. Escaping the Void: How a high school drug addiction flipped into an elite athletic pursuit, and the danger of replacing one obsession with another. Titrating Survival: The terrifying moment Matt realized his 275-lb frame was maxing out the medical equipment keeping him alive at night. The Third Peak Blueprint: Why the biggest strength gains of your life happen only after you exhaust every single recovery variable. The Myth of Constant PRs: How elite strength athletes manage the monotony of training when comparison becomes the thief of joy. MEET THE GUEST: Matt Sharafinski is an elite competitive powerlifter and strength coach with over 12 years of platform experience. Carrying a lifetime DOTS score of 550.85, Matt has broken the 2,000-lb total mark and competed at the highest levels of the sport, including the WPPL Pro Invitational at the Arnold Sports Festival. Through Sheriff Training Systems, Matt combines his background in psychology with elite-level coaching to help athletes overcome the technical and mental barriers of long-term strength development.

Most elite athletes are walking genetic marvels who survive on habits that would ruin the average person. Dr. Dylan Seeley spent years treating the damage caused by this genetic lottery before realizing the entire industry is chasing a ghost. True high performance isn't found in a laboratory metric—it's forged by knowing exactly how close you can fly to the sun before you burn. INSIDE THE EPISODE: The Myth of Optimal: Why chasing perfect metrics is destroying athlete longevity The Hidden Frontier: How fatigue blinds your visual processing and ruins performance The Stress Matrix: Why ice baths and dry needling might be holding you back The Concussion Trap: How traditional cocoon therapy prolongs brain trauma recovery The Tyranny of Metrics: Why raw handshake data beats wearable tech indicators MEET THE GUEST: Dr. Dylan Seeley is a chiropractor, strength coach, and founder of Inferno Performance and Rehab.

The weight room isn't just a place to build muscle. It's a battlefield where psychology meets physical adaptation — and most coaches are losing because they're coaching numbers instead of people. Dr. Justin Lima joins Dave Tate at the elitefts compound to dismantle the myth of "optimal" training and explain why giving athletes a stimulus they aren't prepared for can rob them of long-term development. From scaling Strength Coach Network to his PhD research on reactive force development, Lima connects elite-level sport science with the reality of coaching in the trenches. INSIDE THE EPISODE: • Why coach-to-athlete communication is disappearing in favor of technology • The "Robbing Twice" principle and how advanced methods can ruin future adaptation • Using HRV and readiness metrics as conversation starters — not command centers • The political realities of collegiate strength coaching vs. private sector performance • How to transition from institutional coaching to business ownership • Implementing max effort methods in team sports without wrecking practice schedules ABOUT DR. JUSTIN LIMA: Dr. Justin Lima, PhD, is the President & CEO of Strength Coach Network and a veteran high-performance consultant with nearly 20 years of experience across the B1G, ACC, and Ivy League. He has helped develop: • 30+ NFL Draft Picks • Multiple Super Bowl Champions • Coaches and practitioners across every level of sport His work focuses on translating complex sport science into practical coaching systems that actually work under pressure.

The staged spectacle of the ring and the curated edits of prime time are stripped away to reveal a raw physical reality that cannot be faked. Eric "Bull" Bugenhagen, Jesse "Steel" Godderz, and Michael "Fang" Wardlow endured a month of sensory deprivation and high-stakes violence to resurrect a cultural legend. From the agony of competing with a ruptured bicep to the psychological warfare of gladiator lockdown, these three modern-day icons reveal the grit required to weaponize a 280-pound frame. INSIDE THE EPISODE The Secret Injury: How Fang competed in the most grueling events with a full bicep tear Gladiator Lockdown: The reality of living in isolation with 16 world-class athletes for 30 days Breaking the Rules: Bull reveals the backstage moments that almost got him pulled from the show The 3-Hour Pump: Why training like a bodybuilder is a liability in a 30-foot vertical arena Diet of Champions: Living on sulfur-soaked eggs and high-molecular-weight starch to stay explosive MEET THE GUESTS Eric Bugenhagen ("Bull") Eric Bugenhagen, the chaotic force known as Bull, is a former D1 wrestler from the University of Wisconsin and a YouTube legend built on the philosophy of unorthodox intensity. Known for his 800-pound behind-the-back deadlifts and unhinged charisma, Bugenhagen serves as the engine of the trio, bridging the gap between elite strength sports and mainstream entertainment. Michael Wardlow ("Fang") Michael Wardlow, rebranded as Fang for the arena, is one of professional wrestling's most feared powerhouses. Standing as a multi-time champion in AEW, he brought a D1 wrestling background and a headhunter mentality to the show, proving that functional agility is the only currency that matters when suspended 30 feet in the air. Jesse Godderz ("Steel") Jesse Godderz, known to the world as Steel and Mr. Pectacular, is a rare hybrid of reality TV royalty and professional wrestling veteran. A staple of CBS's Big Brother for over a decade and a 17-year veteran of the squared circle, Godderz transitioned his Golden Era physique into a dominant run on the 2026 revival of American Gladiators.

When Israel was created on this exact day 78 years ago, she didn't come with an instruction manual called “How to Build a Jewish State.” If she had, Jewish educators wouldn't be grappling today with the tensions between Israel's Jewish and democratic values, or needing conversations like this week's episode.This relevant conversation between David Bryfman and Rabbi Josh Weinberg confronts one of the most pressing questions facing Jewish educators today: How do we teach Israel at a moment when love, values, politics, and identity often feel out of sync? As students wrestle with headlines, moral complexity, and their own sense of belonging, the two discuss what it means to cultivate an informed, morally serious relationship with Israel. At a time when many educators feel uncertain about how to lead these conversations, this discussion offers a vision for what meaningful Israel education can look like now. Learn more about The Jewish Education Project at jewishedproject.orgThis episode was produced by Miranda Lapides and Dina Nusnbaum.

Taming your "dumb strength" is the only way to survive when 900 pounds is trying to crush your spine into the floor. Jordan Buchla spent a decade as an emergency room trauma nurse while simultaneously becoming the #2 all-time strongest female squatter on the planet.

One heavy squat at 400 pounds was all Kalil Sherrod needed to know the poison hadn't won. Seven weeks before this recording, Kalil walked into elitefts HQ to hit his first major milestone since a brutal cancer diagnosis. That moment bridged the gap between his life as an elite performance coach and his reality as a survivor. Through two stem cell transplants and multiple rounds of high-intensity chemotherapy, he developed a conjugate-based survival blueprint—one that reinforces a hard truth: muscle mass is one of the most powerful insurance policies for the human body. Inside the Episode: The 93% Rule: Why maintaining a high performance floor matters more than chasing a peak during a competitive season Conjugate for the Court: Applying Westside methodology to basketball players without sacrificing vertical jump or shooting touch Training Through the Storm: How Kalil adjusted his training split during "ICE" chemotherapy to preserve lean tissue The Youth Development Gap: Why the loss of PE and martial arts is producing more fragile athletes—and how to reverse it The IV Protocol: A critical hydration strategy often overlooked during medical treatment Meet the Guest: Kalil Sherrod is a high-performance coach, author, and founder of Revenants Coaching. A former Division II basketball player, he serves as a Sports Performance Coach for the Thailand Titans and works with athletes at The Spot Athletics.

Wealth and muscle follow the same law: if you're terrified of the extreme, you'll never master the baseline. From hauling fish on Cape Cod to earning a PhD while competing as a world-class strongman, Dr. Pat Davidson has spent a lifetime proving that obsession is the only path to clarity. He didn't just study exercise science—he weaponized it to survive a trajectory of self-destruction and transform into one of the most polarizing and brilliant minds in human performance. Inside the Episode: The Ground Spectrum: Why powerlifters and skateboarders live on opposite ends of physics Evolutionary Anatomy: How your body reverts to a "chimp-like" state under chronic stress Hypertrophy Myths: Why machines often out-muscle free weights for pure tissue growth The Addiction of the Climb: Why elite performers are addicted to the "claw back" from failure Meet the Guest: Dr. Pat Davidson is an exercise physiologist, author, and elite athlete who bridges the gap between brutal intensity and academic precision. After a career as a university professor and a top-10 finisher at the World Strongman Championships, he authored A Coach's Guide to Optimizing Movement and created the Rethinking the Big Patterns (RTBP) framework.

Your nutrition protocol is failing not because of your effort, but because you are ignoring the biological godfather that dictates every gram of muscle gained and every ounce of fat burned. Before Nathan Payton was the architect behind eight World's Strongest Man titles, he was a Duke-trained specialist navigating the clinical reality of integrative medicine to bridge the gap between science and the most extreme physical demands on the planet. By mastering the delicate art of insulin modulation, he transformed a career of observation into a proprietary methodology that has kept his athletes in the World's Strongest Man finals for seventeen consecutive years. INSIDE THE EPISODE: The Insulin Godfather: Why insulin is the primary lever that determines the efficacy of every supplement, training session, and recovery protocol. Controlling the Chaos: How Nathan manages the physiological "stuck adrenaline" response in elite athletes using unconventional nutritional triggers. The Hydration Paradox: Why drinking too much water during a competition can actually dilute your performance and increase injury risk. NFL Game Planning: The massive nutritional void in professional football and how specific metabolic timing could prevent rampant Achilles and bicep tears.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION The industry lied to you: performance isn't built on a squat rack—it's engineered at the cellular level. Most coaches are guessing with your biology, while Anthony Castore has spent thirty years proving them wrong. Before becoming the bridge between elite medicine and the weight room, Castore was a student of the "Old Guard," forged in the high-stakes environments of Westside Barbell and mentored by legends like John Meadows and Charles Poliquin. He didn't just learn strength—he witnessed the systemic breakdown of high performers following conventional methods. This obsession with why the body fails—and how to make it more resilient—led him away from traditional coaching and into the deep science of SSRP protocols. The shift wasn't just about moving more weight—it was about mastering the invisible metrics of electron flow and redox balance. Castore identified the gap between medical diagnosis and peak performance—a gap where most athletic careers stall. If your cellular "factory" is compromised, adding more training stress only accelerates breakdown. INSIDE THE EPISODE The Energy Crisis: Why your perceived lack of oxygen during training may actually be a failure in ATP production—and how your chemoreceptors can mislead you The Peptide Hierarchy: Moving beyond the "natty vs enhanced" debate to understand how bioregulators influence gene expression The "Shadow" Deficiencies: Why standard bloodwork often misses mitochondrial dysfunction that limits fat loss and strength The Protocol Paradox: Why the same peptide can help one athlete and harm another based on autonomic regulation The 24-Hour Blueprint: From journaling and nervous system inputs to precise timing of compounds like Tesamorelin and IGF-1 MEET THE GUEST: ANTHONY CASTORE Anthony Castore is an SSRP Fellow and widely recognized as the "King of Peptides," operating at the intersection of body composition, longevity, and cellular efficiency. With over 30 years of experience working alongside leaders like Dr. Eric Serrano and Westside Barbell, Castore has moved beyond traditional training. He specializes in recalibrating human biology—helping high performers fix underlying dysfunction and optimize performance at the cellular level.

In this episode, we dive into the extraordinary "Triple-Threat" career of Adam "Rosco" Roszkowski, one of the most uniquely versatile athletes in modern strength training. We explore the mental and physical shift required to transition from the grace of competitive ballroom dancing to the gridiron of American football, and finally to the world stage of Strongman. This conversation breaks down the blueprint for athletic performance, elite-level muscle development, and the relentless discipline needed to secure five Strongman Champions League (SCL) titles and a spot at the World's Strongest Man. Meet the Guest Adam "Rosco" Roszkowski (WSM Athlete & 5x SCL Champion) Adam is a standout powerhouse in the international strongman circuit, recognized for his remarkable versatility and elite athletic performance. Before cementing his status as a World's Strongest Man competitor and five-time Strongman Champions League (SCL) winner, Adam reached the pinnacle of two other distinct sports as a Vice-Champion ballroom dancer and a European and German Champion in American football. Since committing to strongman in 2021, he has achieved monumental feats of strength, including a 400 kg deadlift and a World Record Bag Throw at the 2025 World's Strongest Viking. Beyond his 2x FIBO ClassX titles, Adam is a vocal advocate for the unfiltered side of pro-level training and high-stakes competition.

I made updates in each page on Ravelry to add skein information. You can enter length and weight and it add that to your stash.  I also ended up changing the names of the finished projects to include the weight and length! I wrote yarn weight (dk sport etc) on physical tags i have on the yarn. So much easier for me to work with.   Brainstorming I have 3 skeins of Lion Brand Fisherman's Wool that I used to start a Waverly Cardigan (but the gauge is just too tight)- click here for my Ravelry Project Page. I think it might be good for the Lakes Pullover by Ozetta (Ravelry Pattern- $8 knitting pattern). I found this by searching the yarn on ravelry then doing the advance pattern search to look for sweaters people knit with this yarn. Related- Eileen recently asked if someone in our group had knit a certain pattern she had questions about before purchasing/committing to. If you look at the pattern on Rav and click the Projects Tab. You can use the filters there to select "Made by Group Members" and then click on the Rav group you want to look in. You can use that to see who you want to chat w/ about it. ElizabethisKnitting (on Instagram- shared her Winter Soul Sweater in this post. Its so beautiful! Why are you not all knitting this? Great question. You can find this pattern on Ravelry.   From the Armchair   Greenwich by Kate Broad. Amazon Affiliate Link. Best Offer Wins by Marisa Kashino. Amazon Affiliate Link.

They were making a stuffed animal to look like a stage like and had everything done but the center bulk part. Aila also ended up working on it with us.   OMG Sock Classes are finished! All of my students turned their heels, some did both socks. Many did their toes and kitchenered. They all had fun and were far more successful than they anticipated so that was very exciting.   KAL News   Pigskin Party '25 is over!

I went to see Sleepwalker at a local theater.  Here's a link to a review that sums up some of my thoughts. I went to see Some Like it Hot in Boston. Megg & I got a fabulous dinner beforehand at Yvonne's. Our waitress even brought over a delicious dumpling dish for us to try (sans lobster). Friday date nights with Dan Running into Riley & her bestie Ellie at Lucky Finn, my current local favorite coffee shop- after the gym on a Saturday morning. It was so hilarious! Very much enjoyed Pluribus on Apple TV+.  Seeing Millie in Finding Nemo Jr. and an early dinner after with family. Mani/pedis with Megg, Eme & Hattie for Hattie's birthday. Super Bowl- while we lost it's always fun to watch. I enjoyed the commercials, and had fun cheering on the Seahawks kicker Jason Myers who played football at Marist where I went to college (now Marist University) Hattie's 8th birthday dinner. Dad and I did a Zoom beforehand in celebration of what would have been Mom's 70th with a few of her cousins.   Quote of the Week Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries.

Joe Jackson, better known as Delco Jesus, is a 140 kg raw powerlifter, coach, and member of the Delco Spotting Crew from just outside Philadelphia. After battling depression, dropping over 100 pounds, and even going through a period of homelessness, Joe found powerlifting and never looked back. With best competition lifts of 826 lb squat, 463 lb bench, and 744 lb deadlift for a 2017 lb total at 308, he's competed on big stages like American Pro, Ghost Clash, IPL North Americans, and ABS Series meets.

Jon Grove — North Georgia Barbell founder, APF Georgia State Chairman, WPC Junior World Champion, and true powerlifting lifer. Jon competed in powerlifting for 20 years (1990–2010), lifting in the first monolift meet in history and the very first WPO meet.

David "Dumptruck Dave" Raymond is a 34-year-old father, stepfather, and grandfather from a small town in Illinois, and one of the strongest 165-lb lifters in the world. He started as a 148-lb lifter, becoming one of the first Americans to squat 600+ pounds at that bodyweight, then moved up to 165, where he squatted 705 pounds and deadlifted 716 pounds in the same meet. Along the way, he's competed at marquee shows like The American Pro and Power Surge Pro/Am, all while insisting powerlifting is "just a hobby."   Follow David Raymond:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.raymond_ Become an elitefts channel member for early access to Dave Tate's Table Talk podcast and other perks. @eliteftsofficial Support Dave Tate's Table Talk: FULL Crew Access - https://www.elitefts.com/join-the-crew Limited Edition Apparel - https://www.elitefts.com/shop/apparel/limited-edition.html Programs & More - https://www.elitefts.com/shop/dave-tate-s-table-talk-crew.html TYAO Application - https://www.elitefts.com/dave-tate-s-tyao-application Best-selling elitefts Products: Pro Resistance Training Bands: https://www.elitefts.com/shop/bands.html Specialty Barbells: https://www.elitefts.com/shop/bars-weights/specialty-bars.html Wraps, Straps, Sleeves: https://www.elitefts.com/shop/power-gear.html Sponsors: Get an extra 10% OFF at elitefts (CODE: TABLE TALK): https://www.elitefts.com/    Get 10% OFF Your Next Marek Health Labs (CODE: TABLETALK): https://marekhealth.com/tabletalk    Get a free 8-count Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular drink mix flavors: http://www.drinklmnt.com/tabletalk    Support Massenomics! https://www.massenomics.com     Save 20% on monthly, yearly, or lifetime - MASS Research Review (CODE ELITEFTS20): https://massresearchreview.com     RP Hypertrophy App (CODE: TABLE TALK) https://rpstrength.com/pages/hypertrophy-app
