Club Coach - Mitch Zaplatosch
Allow us to introduce our dedicated club coach, Mitch Zaplatosch, a multifaceted professor at KSU whose expertise spans far beyond the confines of Powerlifting. With a PhD in Exercise Physiology, we can rely on him to give us educated answers and information about fitness. Coach Mitch not only powerlifts, but also has a background in long-distance running, adding a dynamic layer to his background.
For nearly a decade, Coach Mitch has competed in over 10 meets, amassing over 440 dots and leaving a mark on countless meets. Yet, his influence extends well beyond the podium. As a fixture in our practices, Mitch imparts invaluable insights on form, nutrition, and overall fitness. With a comprehensive understanding of the body to a molecular level, he's a trusted resource for every member of our club.
At meets, Coach Mitch's role transcends mere coaching; he is there to help handle competitions and will pay attention to your training at practice to ensure a great competition. He provides unwavering support to our team that doesn't go unnoticed. With Professor Zaplatosch as our coach, we're not just athletes, but educated and motivated athletes at that.
