Doug LarsonThis week on Barbell Shrugged, our 5-part series The Weightlifter’s Journey continues with part 3, “How Weightlifting can change your life.”
On part two, we shared some key habits that will help keep life’s inevitable hurdles from derailing your weightlifting progress. This week we take the story on the road, as the Barbell Shrugged team travels deep into South Florida for the east coasts’ largest sanctioned weightlifting meets – The MIA Classic.
The bright lights of the competition platform are a thrill for any new athlete, but the sport of weightlifting is about much more than just chasing PR’s and winning meets. For those who’s journey hasn’t been quite so smooth or stellar, the barbell is more like a shot at redemption and a stronger life.
What do you do when you hit rock bottom? You let the barbell lift you back up. Welcome to The Weightlifter’s Journey, part 3.
Enjoy the show!
And please, share this post with a friend who might enjoy hearing Danny’s story. The more people who join the journey, the better.
