I had a great time traveling with my daughter for Tennis at West Va University.
My buddies encouraged me to connect with Tanner Kolb, The S&C Coach for West Va. University Wrestling and I am so glad I did! I knew I had heard of Tanner and his last name also rang a bell. Tanner doesn't post on social, he is a pure Coach.
We chatted for 90 minutes and I recorded a few tidbits to share with you below......
When I walked into the building, 2 wrestlers were training on a Saturday around 6 PM. We chatted quickly and one of the kids has Grandparents who live in Manasquan and his Dad played Football in Manasquan, talk about a SMALL World!!
Tanner's Dad, Jon Kolb, is a 13 yr NFL veteran and also competed in the early World's Strongest Man Contests back around when I was baby!
I was lucky enough to find a key club gym one of the days I was there and crushed a great training session. Unfortunately, I could not train on Sunday because non members can only train during staffed hours, although the "staff" that was there may have been a 20 yr old girl but such is the insurance life for gyms......
Below are a few pics......
Get some Anabolic Coffee or an Anabolic Protein Shake and enjoy these videos as well as an article I am linking below about Tanner's Dad, Jon Kolb.
Here is a GREAT article about Jon Kolb and how he was underrated as a NFL player but NOT underrated as a man. READ HERE.
At the 40 minute mark, you see Jon Kolb vs Bill Kazmaier in the tug of war below:
I will expand on this trip with a STRONG Life Podcast so standby for more updates!
