Russ Roustamov

Hi, I'm Russ. I grew up here in northern Virginia. I always had an active and athletic lifestyle. I played baseball up through high school and that is where i discovered weight training. Building power and explosiveness through the movbement of heavy weight quickly became very appealing to me and i decided to really dive in to the mechanics of compound movements.

Apart from weightlifting, I do stay very active with cycling and hiking, as well as many other outdoor activities. I found fitness to be a cure for so many things and it instilled in me a level of self-ownership and discipline that made my life infinitely better and i wish to pass that on to others.
