Josh March

A curiosity about biology and a love of physical activity led emPower owner Josh March on a journey to understand everything he could about human performance and biomechanics. In fact, this passion still burns today as he continually seeks ways to challenge what we know about fitness and the limits of the human body.

‍

This desire is what ultimately led to his love of Obstacle Course Racing (OCR)... functional fitness on display! With 20 years of experience, a degree in Exercise Science (and a Master's in Christian Ministry), numerous prestigious speaking engagements and hands on presentations, he loves sharing what he has learned with all who desire to listen and change lives - be it their own, or others! Josh is also married to the love of his life, Erin, with whom he has 2 amazing kiddos who share his passion for OCR.

Additionally, he serves as the 1st Sergeant of the Security Forces Squadron for the 193rd Special Operations Wing in the US Air Force (PA Air National Guard). In 2021 he won the OCR World Championships in his age group and was later named the Air National Guard Athlete of the Year. His best piece of advice is "plan your work and work your plan", but his favorite quote is, "we don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing." (George Bernard Shaw)
