Toys & Tech of The Trade-Episode 44 | Joe Szatmary

RAGE Works Network-All Shows

In this week's episode of Toys & Tech of the Trade, Rich sits down with content creator, podcaster, and strongman competitor Joe Szatmary. Coach Joe is the host of the Becoming The Lion podcast and owner of The Lion's Den training facility in Colmar, PA.

Coach Joe's story is truly a tale of grit and determination and serves as proof that if you believe in something and grind hard enough, you can make it. During this episode, Joe and Rich discuss Joe's start, from his humble beginnings in his aunt's garage through the struggles in getting his facility off the ground. Within the core of the conversation, we dig into the tech Joe uses to create content for his YouTube channel and his podcast. Also on the discussion table is his supplement stack (including one he thinks is hugely underrated) and the benefits of owning a dog (shoutout to Zeke).

This conversation is not strictly about a gym, as Joe's experiences and wisdom he shared can be applied to any business or side hustle.

The Lion's Den Training Facility is located at:

311 Bethlehem Pike

Suite K

Colmar, PA 18915
