Doug Kechijian is a guy I initially met a few years ago when he was a PT student for Bill. We immediately connected because of our similar age and affinity for everything 80’s, but Doug is an awesome guy and someone I’m excited to have on the show here today.
In this episode we’re going to talk about how his time in the military influenced him with regards to therapy and training, why having a training philosophy is so important, and of course we even have a little fun talking about the greatest rock band of the 80’s.
