Today we have a very special guest—Dr. Josh Wildeman. Josh is a professor (and was actually Alex's professor) at the University of Southern Indiana. He is a faculty member, strength and conditioning coach for athletics, husband, and last—but definitely not least—dad to 3 wonderful children. Listen in as Alex catches up with someone who has had a massive influence on him while they discuss how to maintain your fitness with a busy schedule, the importance of athletic development as we age, the mental benefits of strength training, and the role Josh has played in Alex's journey. As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought.
