As I was getting into coaching Coach Romar was one of the main coaches I wanted to learn from and I spent a tremendous amount of time just to have the opportunity to be around him and his program. He gave me some of the best advice during my coaching journey. One of the men I respect the most not only for the success that he has had, but the type of person that he is. I’m excited to share his story with you all.
Enjoy the show!
