The STRONG Life Podcast with Zach Even - Esh

The recent podcast with Dr. Eric Nager was awesome. Simple but extremely powerful advice that looked at the whole person/lifestyle. The episode was valuable for young and old to optimize health and performance. I need to get my butt down to Maryland ASAP to see Dr. Nager because you can tell he looks at the entire lifestyle, not just prescribing you something! Also hitting a chest workout next to Kevin Levrone right after my doctor visit would make for a pretty great day!

Zach, thank you for all of the work you do in creating these podcasts. I know it’s easy to think no one reviews, so no one’s listening. You’ve inspired me to create my own business and we’re celebrating 1 year in a few weeks. I’m training over 40 people locally part time. I never would have understood or even thought it was possible to do this on a part time basis with that many people. You’ve helped me share my knowledge with my town and community. I truly feel that there aren’t many good trainers in my area, no one’s trying to educate themselves on proper strength training. It’s all just for show- cone drills for the athletes, classes with no progressive overload for adults, etc. Hearing your voice through this podcast inspires me to keep going and that makes the world a better place because then we all pass along what we know and learn from people like you to our local communities. Thank you brother. By the way, I typically listen on Spotify which to my knowledge you can’t leave a written review there, so maybe the majority of your audience also listens on there.

Zach is on my current Mt Rushmore of strength coaches. No BS 30 second fitness influencers. I relate to him because we literally grew up at the same time in neighboring Central Jersey towns so our origin stories are similar. Also, my training methods mirror Zach’s. Heavy objects… sandbags, stones , tires & sprints, jumps, etc. No rules, just doing the Fn work. I recently competed at his DL comp & attended his DL seminar hosted by Nate, both awesome events w/ positive energy at the USG.

There are a few people like Zack in the world. He constantly pushes himself and looks for the same dedication in others. This is not the podcast for all. Only a select few with that same fire in their belly will appreciate his enthusiasm for hard work in life, the gym and business. I applaud Zach for sharing his thoughts and giving his blood sweat and tears so that we may all be better.
