329: Break on through (with Jordan Geist)
from HMMR Podcast
Jordan Geist first made headlines in 2018 when he threw the senior shot put 70 feet as a teenager. This summer, he solidified his status as perhaps the top shot putter in the world. His path to the top, however, spanned eight years of plateaus, pivots into the hammer throw, and even building his own career as a coach before he fully broke through. On this week's podcast, Geist joins us to discuss his career journey, the lessons that shaped him, and a detailed breakdown of his own throwing technique.
