The Premier Couple -- and Coaches -- of Powerlifting

Matt and Sioux-Z have been fixtures on the U.S. powerlifting scene for many years. In addition to world titles on her end and international coaching experience on both his and hers, they bring a passion and devotion to the sport that is seldom seen elsewhere. These SSPT podcasts serve as a helpful forum via which novices and elite powerlifters alike can gain additional insights that will improve their training and game day performance. Kudos to these two for their tireless efforts to give back to the sport that they -- and I -- love.
