Paul has built a weightlifting-based physical education program at the high school where he teaches. In this episode, he shares his three-year journey of developing the program from the ground up.
Paul Coover is a high school athletic director and physical education teacher in San Diego, California. He is also the founder and head coach of Grey Castle Strength and Conditioning. This USA Weightlifting-affiliated club operates out of a classroom converted into a fully equipped weight room. During his time at San Diego High, the weightlifting program was profiled by USAW as the region’s first comprehensive physical education department with a curriculum centered on the Olympic lifts.
