My hope is that my coaching log will help you by:

  • Showing the benefits of high intensity/low volume training that I’ve followed injury free for over 20 years which has developed into the

    The Minimalist/M2 Raw Training Method and the

    The M2 Equipped Training Ebook
  • Teaching through the experiences of my training partners and I.
  • Helping to show how to overcome adversity, regardless of what it may be.

I have been competitively powerlifting for over 20 years. Within that time I have competed raw, single ply and multi ply.
