About Your Powerlifting Coach

About

Evan Schwarz

Powerlifter. Coach. Fort Collins, CO.

I'm Evan Schwarz, 22 years old. I've been powerlifting for eight years and competing for eight years. In that time I've coached over 50 people at every level — from world champions to people touching a barbell for the very first time.

I got into coaching because I had great coaches growing up. I know what a great coach did for me — and I want to be that coach for my athletes.

NRV stands for nerve — doing something even when you're nervous. The nerves are the cue: if you're nervous, that means you should do it. Nervous is the signal to go.
