Seb Ostrowicz (@seb_ostrowicz) is the founder of Weightlifting House, a company bringing people closer to the sport of Weightlifting with podcasts, articles, videos, apparel, and equipment. In addition, WH provides Weightlifting education through their Coaches Only and Athlete Only portals. Seb is also the author of two books: one is a weightlifting historian’s guide to the greatest Sinclairs of all time, and the other is The Glenn Pendlay Method which is everything Seb learned from coach Glen Pendlay before he passed.
This chat walks us through the story of WH, their struggle and successes when selling equipment, the future of the sport, and more!
