In this episode, Dave sits down with one of the strongest Deadlifters in the world—Cailer Woolem. Topics range from Cailer’s deadlift development from the beginning of his career as a high school powerlifter in Texas to holding all-time world records, training the sumo deadlift versus conventional and the relationship between the two, and more detail on Dave’s puke bucket than anyone may have ever wanted. 

Welcome to the Human Performance Outliers Podcast with hosts Dr. Shawn Baker and Zach Bitter. For this episode, we welcome Ed Coan onto the show. Ed is widely recognized as one of the greatest powerlifters of all time. He joins the show to share what it was like to train at the peak of his sport.
