  • Sprinting Into the Fire: The Story of Savage Barbell w/ CEO and Founder Dave Gallagher, and hosts Anders Varner, Doug Larson and John Swanson - Barbell Shrugged — Barbell Shrugged #416

    11/09/2019 Duration: 01h14min

    Dave Gallagher is the owner of Savage Barbell.  Savage Barbell is not his full time job. Dave is a full time fire fighter in Southern California and runs Savage on his days off from the fire station. He started Savage Barbell after a very poor customer service experience at the CrossFit Games in 2014.  He thought, “these people have such a great community and this is how they treat us?” He started Savage with a college buddy, who runs a web design marking company in Huntington Beach, California. They wanted to “offer a great product line that knows without its customers, we are nothing!”   In this episode of Barbell Shrugged, the crew breaks into the intricacies of small business, building a clothing brand, competing against the giant in the industry, and how being a full time firefighter captain fuels the mindset and success of the company.   http://savagebarbell.com/shrugged to save 25% on your first purchase.   Minute Breakdown:   1-10 What happens when Plan A doesn’t work. 11-20 The right way to sponsor a

  • Alex Turner - Training, Nutrition, and the Influencer Lifestyle — Real Chalk #90

    27/08/2019 Duration: 49min

    I originally met Alex a few years while he was sponsored by a huge supplement brand called “SHREDZ.” The company sponsored several athletes at the time and in just a short period of time and built them into super stars. It was at that time I started to ask a lot of questions and see what exactly all these people were doing that was giving them the kind of income that had people driving around in Lamborghinis and such. It was a crazy time and I’m fortunate to have known a few of the pioneers like Alex from that time.    In this episode we touch on a little of what makes a solid “influencer” and how training modalities and nutrition has changed over the years. I also ask Alex to share about his own fitness and nutrition regimens that he’s used over the years and what his opinions are on all of them. Lot of great chatter in this one that is sure to get you pumped for the week.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/rc-turner

  • Jared Enderton - Background, Lifting Tips, and Business — Real Chalk #89

    20/08/2019 Duration: 56min

    Jared’s story is pretty crazy. Although most of us know him as the really strong dude with the beard who went to the CrossFit Games... He was also a strongman competitor at a body weight of 305lbs and at a height of just 5’6”. He talks about a particular time in his life where he even lost almost 100lbs in a 3 month window to start his CrossFit journey. An insane feat of his that I feel is rarely ever touched on.    Beyond his oscillating competitive endeavors, I talk to Jared about his opinions on CrossFit, what’s important to him at this very moment, and if he has aspirations of competing at the games again anytime soon.   Did I mention that he also goes over some of his favorite training cues to get better at Olympic lifting as well!?
