Kevin “Oak” Okolie started lifting weights just to put on a ‘little’ muscle and is now one of the most successful American Powerlifters of all time. Over his 7 year career he has dominated the 220 and 242 pound weight classes all while continuously crushing records. Not just a lifter, Kevin is also the founder and owner of Barbell Commission Apparel and co-owner of JDI Barbell in New York City. Kevin prides himself in helping people be the best version of themselves and not holding anything back in his mission to deliver that to the strength community. When he isn’t hard at work under a barbell, or creating world class lifting programs, you can catch him tuning in to some formula 1 racing, catching the latest NBA games, or searching high and low for the best bacon cheeseburgers.
