BONUS - Full Length James Horn Interview

9/18/2019
In the last episode we interviewed James Horn from Pallas Athena. We spoke for 3 hours, but had to cut 2/3 of the content in order to keep the episode around the 1 hour mark and to keep it focused on strength and training. We thought the interview itself was so interesting that it was worth releasing in full for anyone who cares to hear it! Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/hella-weights.
