Get Stronger Faster: What Most Coaches Won't Teach You About Building Real Strength | Jim Wendler

In this episode of Table Talk, we cut through the noise and get real about what it actually means to be a good coach. Dave and the crew dive into why most coaches fail their athletes by focusing on weight on the bar instead of movement, discipline, and leadership. The conversation hits hard on the difference between building athletes and babysitting kids with bad programming and worse attitudes. It’s not about yelling or grinding them into the ground - it’s about teaching the basics, creating leaders, and developing a culture where accountability drives progress. If you're a coach or athlete looking to level up and stop the excuses, this episode is for you. ‪@JimWendler‬
