Welcome to our very first episode! This pilot is a special one, featuring a conversation with Coach Anthony at Mississippi State, that was so good, it convinced us to start a podcast. It all began when he shared some powerful insights on a striking movement I posted on X. Now, he's here to share his knowledge and wisdom with you. Although this 11-minute clip jumps around a bit, it’s packed with great content, including stories about his start with Yancy McKnight, a discussion on CNS prep circuits, and a little chat about VBT, Deadlifts and the Tier System. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
