Summary
Today we host a special guest, fellow strength coach and fitness enthusiast, Sam Pfister. Sam got his start in fitness while hustling and grinding in the gauntlet of all gauntlets – in politics. While working and interning in the DC area, Sam started doing Crossfit in his apartment and over time sharpened his coaching and programming skills. When the pandemic hit, he could’ve landed anywhere in the country but decided on Nashville, where he’s made his home and an impact for the last couple years. Sam’s major focus is what we might call “adult PT” or strength and conditioning for adults. He also spends a good deal of his time being the go-to strength coach for local homeschool athletes. Sam is a high energy, stellar coach, and Andy and I had a great time hearing his story and his philosophy on coaching.
