I know this for a fact because I did it myself by harnessing the power of weight training to give me a healthy and vigorous life; and I know you can too.- Robert Herbst is a 60 years young 18x World Champion Power Lifter- 30x National Champion and 38x World Record holder. In this episode he gives a glimpse into how he over came adversity from a young athlete, to became a World Champion and how he has been a part of the drug testing culture at the Olympics.

His doctor forbade world champion power lifter Robert Herbst to lift anything when he was a child with scoliosis. Eighteen world championships and twenty one consecutive national championships later, what compelled him to rebel? Herbst believes in managing risk but errs on the side of throwing caution to the wind. It’s paid off spectacularly. His MO in all his successes, including his Clark Kentian day job as a lawyer, is that as soon as he identifies a challenge, he burns his ships. He makes an irrevocable commitment. Period.  Lessons: 1. Better to fail on the stage, than fail by staying home.  2. Make an irrevocable commitment to your goal.  3. Be physically active enough that it becomes a need.    Links: Make America Fit Again (TM). http://w8lifterusa.com Robert Herbst on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIT0iclJGOGQ68uKvFgJu1uvYjo50amBu  CREDITS Producer – Marion Abrams, Madmotion, llc.
