When world champion shot-putter Joe Kovacs first joined up with Rogue, he was still making his home right down the road here in Columbus, Ohio. Since winning his second Silver Medal at the 2020/21 Olympic Games in Tokyo, however, Joe and his wife/coach Ashley have relocated to a new home outside Nashville, Tennessee, which also required equipping a whole new home gym.
“We had a basement gym in Columbus,” Joe tells us, “but one of the hardest things here in Tennessee is that there aren’t many basements. So, our garage has become the new gym.”

As it turns out, though, Joe and Ashley were quick converts to the garage gym club, as they were able to work with Rogue on a new layout that made efficient use of the space without sacrificing any of their critical go-to equipment.
Here’s a closer look at some of the featured products in the Kovacs’s gym and the role they play in the regimen of a decorated Olympian.
