Kodiak Athletic Club owner Lindsey Knight made his regular January appearance on KMXT’s Jock of the Rock on Saturday, talking about healthier lifestyles for the new year. Hosts Nick Sandin and Derek Clarkston asked if he has plans to expand since the furniture store in the building has gone out of business, or if he plans to add certain amenities.

Knight is also the organizer of the annual KMXT Bench Press Competition, which is coming up on Saturday, January 21^st. It’ll be at 10 a.m. in the Kodiak High School gym, with sign-in at 9:30 a.m. Contestants lift either half or all of their body weight and take pledges for how many repetitions they can do. One Jock of the Rock host, Derek Clarkston has signed up to participate.
