Episode 304 Show Notes
What would you do if you were told you’d never lift a barbell again? In this week’s episode of Strength and Scotch, Grant and Heavey are joined by EBA Coach Nicole for a special client case study. Nicole shares the journey of client “Nakatomi” who went from emergency back surgery and a prognosis that she would never lift again, to setting all-time PR’s a year later. This is one seriously inspirational story and we are so proud of this athlete’s determination.
