|Ep. 36| Angelo Camargo: Lifter for Life Thoughts From A Balcony

Angelo Carmago is a powerlifter, fitness trainer at Old School Iron, veteran, husband, and father of 3.

Angelo begins by telling the story of how he first got involved with powerlifting as he ventured from the local rec center to the military.

We then jump into dealing with injuries, the detrimental mindset that can lead to pushing your body too far, overcoming the injuries after they happen, and how to avoid them while you’re training.

As a experienced trainer, Angelo talks through his current methodology behind his powerlifting prep, lifting styles that he learned from the Army, how young powerlifters should focus their training for long term success, and how individualized creating a program should be for each client.

We dive into crazy world of fitness on social media. Although we gain quality information from it, we discuss the damaging effects it has on people’s confidence, particularly the youth of today.

Angelo opens up about fatherhood, his faith, sports, self awareness, mistakes he’s made in life, being a good human, being a virtuous leader, and the aspirations he has for his business.

The man, the myth, the legend, THE OG! Angelo is one badass MF with a heart of gold. It was truly a pleasure being able to sit down and learn more about this man.

Hope y’all enjoy 🫡
