In this episode of the RAW Podcast, Marty Gallagher shares how he’s applying the same strength training principles from his youth to a new generation. Marty recently began coaching 15-year-old Andrew on a 12-week periodized program focusing on the core four lifts: bench press, overhead press, squat, and deadlift. These time-tested methods, which Marty himself used back in 1964, continue to deliver results today. The hosts also tackle common concerns parents have about strength training for pre-pubescent kids and teenagers, including how to balance sports performance and nutrition. 

Check out our weekly Powerlifting Articles by Marty Gallagher where Marty discusses everything from the squat, deadlift, bench press, overhead press and much more. His latest article "Nothing New Under The Sun" is up now. 

And don't forget the Jim Steel Weight Training Articles combining his head strength coach experience from the University of Pennsylvania for twenty years with decades of successful powerlifting meets and bodybuilding competitions for us all to learn from and enjoy.
