In this episode of the podcast, Coach Calvin announces the opening of his new gym, Lionheart Weightlifting in St. Louis, Missouri!

We talk about…

• The humble beginnings in the back of a CrossFit gym and often running classes with just one lifter and two coaches

• Why he and his coach, Trent Crain, decided to move into their own space

• How the unique lease structure they have made it possible

• The crazy story of how they got $20,000 worth of equipment for ~5k
