Under his guidance, Ben Davis saw incredible atheltic success which resulted in 25 state titles and multiple national champions. Kevin was also one of the original four founding members of the NHSSCA. We discuss his beginings into high school strength and conditioning, and what the landscape of high school strength and conditioning looked like at the time. Coach then tells us what the beginning of the NHSSCA looked like. Coach Vanderbush shared so much experience and wisdom in this episode, you’re guarenteed to take something away. Enjoy!
