As co-owner of Submit Strength Equipment, Jon has been responsible for the design of numerous pieces of cutting-edge training equipment now in use around the world.

 

The incredibly strong, yet most likely the friendliest guy you will ever meet, stops by to discuss the following:

 

 

• Why safe words didn't matter during Jon & his wife, Amy's attempt to "nail it" during a recent Guinness Book of World Record attempt
• What is the importance of velocity in strength training & what are some examples of including it in your current training program
• How do Jon & his friend John Brookfield continue to challenge each other to get stronger, while having fun, & discovering ways to continue to increase strength 
• What are the "weird things" that Jon's neighbors hear coming out his basement
• What prompted Jon to write his latest Dragon Door published book, "Neuro Mass"
• Jon shares a bonus Neuro Mass workout that did not make the Neuro Mass book & exclusive only to LLA podcast listeners
• What is Jon's approach in terms of recovery, in order to balance out his constant extreme strength training
• Just how many days a week should you do deadlifts
• Jon shares his experience in working w/the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the U.S. Olympic greco-wrestling team, with John Brookfield and the Battling Ropes training system
• Why creating a system trumps trying to "invent" something that already exists
• Why giving credit to where credit is due only gives more credit to you (thank you Dr. Seus....see what I did there)
• Why the heck is Jon heading to Mongolia & how you can be a part of it 
• How Jon uses feats of strength as life lessons for kids and adults
