"Several years ago Mark, a mentor, and friend introduced me to the concepts of Original Strength. His passion for the principles and implementation of the system inspired me to learn how it could improve my performance and the performance of the athletes I serve. "Separate the content from the container" is a phrase I heard years ago and is vital for developing strength programs for athletes. This means an athletes appearance does not correlate with success. Original Strength Performance provides a blueprint to bridge weight room accomplishments and aesthetics with on-field performance."
