Starting Strength Radio

Mark Rippetoe

Booking Overview

A predominantly solo-expert strength-training show focused on barbell training, coaching, and practical questions, with occasional external guests discussing subjects connected to the host’s interests. Credible strength coaches, fitness professionals, sports-performance experts, and other specialized professionals with a strong topical connection could be pitched, but the limited guest pattern makes booking relatively easy when the fit is clear.
