S&C Coach Mike Barwis (Michigan)

any s&c coach who lies about numbers is a dipshit.

just like some athletes lie about their numbers to somehow soothe their own ego, some s&c coaches do the same crap to make themselves seem like better trainers…

that’s not really directed towards barwis, but the shit happens way too much in s&c, and athletes end up falling for it.

A fellow trainer at the gym I work at tried to convince me that someone had clean and jerked 1,000lbs before.

This was right after Bolton broke the 1,000lb deadlift barrier. He was convinced though…

That doesn’t really have anything to do with the topic at hand, but it reminded me of a time when I had a hearty laugh.

I dont believe any college football player can clean 500 lbs. The American record in the C & J is 237.5 kilo (522.5 lbs) if im not mistaken…
