“I’m not sure why John bothers having people on as guests, he is knowledgeable that’s for sure but I have never heard a presenter that cuts off their guest and inserts their own point of view as much as John does. It takes a few podcasts to notice but listen to a few and all the opinions start to...”Read full review »

“I was lucky enough to be a guest on Power Athlete Radio to discuss my latest book, In Defense of Doping. I found Mr. Welbourn to be knowledgeable, engaging, and fair in his approach. This was not a rubber stamp of my philosophy. Nor was it an adversarial debate. We had a fair-minded,...”Read full review »

“Gentlemen,
The information you are sharing is exceptional. But your audio devices or whatever you are recording with is abysmal. I have to go full volume in a quiet room to hear you and your guests. You need to fix this.”

Topics are useful but every episode is turned into complaining about everybody who isn't like John without much critical thinking behind it. There are much better evidence based podcasts that don't waste 30% of the...”Read full review »

“Wealth of knowledge in all things strength and conditioning. Hilarious at times. Horrible movie taste but if you’re here for movie recommendation, move along Spielberg. You’ll learn something every single time you listen. And if you don’t, you learn that you can’t pay attention.
Cheers PA 👊🔥”
