This Amateur Powerlifter Will Make You Think Twice About Skipping Your Next Workout

by Sammy Nickalls

Many of us find it difficult to go to the gym as is. But imagine having cerebral palsy, a defect in the brain that causes your muscles to contract uncontrollably. It’d be practically impossible to go to the gym, right?

Wrong.

Next time you’re tempted to skip the gym–or give up on anything, really–think of Craig Koonce and his unwavering willpower.

Is there someone who inspires you to keep on going? Tell us about it!
