Aman Anderson | Coaching for Culture
The best coaches understand more than just what muscle is the prime mover in a specific lift. They understand sports science, behavior, habits, motivation, and maybe most important - struggle. Aman Anderson understands all of these things and more. And he thinks big.
As if being a small business and gym owner isn’t enough, Aman also dedicates his time to coaching the next generation of climbers and building one of the most exciting competitions to hit climbing in many years - The Beast Fingers Loud Climbing Combine.
The BFL Combine is a blend of sports science, climbing culture, and urban culture. Loud music, deep bass, strong climbers and feats of strength. The next combine will happen on April 9, 2022 in Denver, CO.
In this episode we discuss:
