Bonus Episode: Andy Baker on Mastering Strength Training Principles, Programming, and Progress
On this classic episode (a replay of Ep 60), we’re examining the world of programming and coaching with my special guest, Andy Baker. We get into programming principles for lifters of different ages and experience levels, whether your goal is to improve strength, performance, or body composition, or just have fun but effective workouts. We also talk about Andy’s career as a coach, training principles and methods, and what he’s been up to lately.
If you don’t already know him, Andy Baker is a highly sought-after strength coach, personal trainer, competitive raw and drug-free powerlifter, and co-author of two best-selling books on strength training.
Andy’s books and programming changed my life when I finally figured things out and got my act together back in 2020 and did my first novice linear progression with Starting Strength. I’ve since run several of his programs, my favorite being The KSC Method for Power-Building, and I’ve been a group client of his Baker Barbell Club since 2021.
Unlock the secrets of effective strength training with Andy Baker, a strength coach whose expertise spans from military fitness to running a successful barbell club. Our conversation promises insights that transcend the usual workout chatter, focusing on how to craft a regimen that's as enjoyable as it is sustainable. Andy and I dissect the principles of programming that hold true whether you're a gym rookie or a seasoned weightlifter, offering guidance on how to pursue strength, enhance body composition, and safeguard long-term health.
