Refuse to Be a Victim — Andy Coleman — Unpolished Podcast Ep. #36

Ep. #37 — How Hard Is It to Get to the MLB? — Cam Janik

Cam Janik was drafted in 2024 and is currently in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization. I’ve trained Cam since he was 12 years old, so this episode is a full-circle conversation about what it really takes to go from a young athlete with a dream to playing pro baseball. We talk about the jump from college to pro ball, why there are no “easy” at-bats anymore, plus the reality of being a catcher: controlling a pitching staff, game-calling, and the work that never shows up on a stat sheet. Cam also shares how he trains and recovers now that he’s playing every day and what discipline looks like when motivation disappears.

Refuse to Be a Victim — Andy Coleman — Unpolished Podcast Ep. #36

Georgia living, Forsyth County growth, public education, local politics, and a WILD survival story — this Unpolished Podcast episode with Andy Coleman goes way beyond real estate. Steve sits down with Andy Coleman (The Coleman Group / “Coleman Sold It”) — a Forsyth County local who knows North Georgia history like a walking encyclopedia — to talk about what it’s really like living in the Atlanta suburbs, why families are moving here, and what happens when a “fast-growing county” starts hitting its limits. Andy also shares the story behind his hand injury from a Jeep wreck on GA-400 — the split-second moment that changed everything, what it taught him about mindset, and how training + grit helped him push forward.

Tommy John is a coach, bodybuilder, and former powerlifter who’s spent over 20 years in the trenches of strength and nutrition.
