Dan John and Jim Wendler have been my go-tos for a while. I need to find a couple of people more on the mobility side of the world, as that's something I'm WAY underknowledged about. General lifestyle/functional strength, too.0

I think you mean Mark Bell...who runs supertraining along with Silent Mike XD . The cool thing about Mark though is he is very responsive to people. I shared a video of me doing slingshot bench and he suggested I move the slingshot up my biceps a smidge more. Super helpful, funny, and friendly guy!0 -

Starett's books are good. He has Mobility WODs, 5-10 minutes on a variety of topics, probably 600+ of them plus longer videos. Some of them are free on his site. He has a pay service I belong to about $100 a year. Here is the site, looks like there is a 10 day free trial available, then $9.99 a month or prepaid plans a bit cheaper per month.

This is a good list. I would add Tony Gentilcore and Stuart Phillips (nutrition, specifically protein research).
I also follow Schoenfeld and Aragon, already mentioned.0 -
Layne norton
He's the reason I can lift with proper form
Something about his descriptions just makes everything make sense, and I love to watch him lift0 -
