Episode 136: Brian Carroll – Is it better to be strong like an oak or pliable like a tree limb for golf? What is true core strength and stability? Should golfers be doing Olympic lifts? Can an injury setback be the best gift you could receive?

Brian Carroll (YT: @BrianCarroll1306, IG: @briancarroll1306, X: @bcarroll1306) is a retired powerlifter with over two decades of world-class powerlifting. After years of back pain and failed therapy, Brian met with world-renowned back specialist Professor Stuart McGill, which changed the trajectory of his life. In 2017 they authored the book ‘Gift of Injury’ about Brians triumphant comeback to powerlifting where Brian set the all-time squat record of 1,306 lbs.

Brian has taught and lectured to phys. therapists, chiropractors, medical doctors, professional and strength condition coaches, and experts from all areas of sports on how to minimize injury risk while building strength and resilience.
