I’m Anthony Hagele, strength coach at Hagele Strength and an exercise and performance nutrition researcher at Lindenwood University. I created the Everyday Strength Podcast to bridge the gap between high-level performance science and the reality of being a busy everyday athlete.

This show is built for men who want to be strong, lean, athletic, and healthy without having to sacrifice family, work, and life outside the gym. Each week, I break down the science of training and nutrition into practical, no-nonsense strategies that you can actually use. You’ll hear deep dives into programming, why certain methods work, how to structure your week, and what it really takes to become incredibly strong and well conditioned.

We’ll cover themes like the Conjugate Method adapted for hybrid athletes, energy system development for conditioning, and the nutrition strategies that fuel both performance and longevity. We’ll dig into how to train for health and performance, not one at the expense of the other.

Along the way, you’ll also hear about mindset, discipline, and the lessons that carry beyond the gym. Because being an everyday athlete is about more than chasing numbers, it’s about building a body and lifestyle that can keep up with your kids, withstand stress, and thrive for decades.

You can expect episodes that blend evidence-based research with practical application, drawing from my work in exercise science, my coaching experience, and my own training journey. The goal is always the same: to equip you with tools, insights, and systems that make you better. Stronger. Healthier. And ready for whatever life throws at you.

If you’re tired of cookie-cutter fitness advice and want a podcast that goes deep while staying grounded in the realities of everyday life, you’re in the right place.

Stay tuned for new episodes dropping every week.
