Client Success Story - From Stroke Patient to Flipping Tires

Torrance started training with me not long after he was released from the hospital after an 8 MONTH stay due to a stroke (in the middle of the pandemic last year).

No visitors due to COVID. He woke up not even knowing the pandemic was happening.

He could barely walk unassisted. He had barely any control over his entire left side. Barely any range of motion. We had to get creative to find exercises he could even do. He’s a young guy, and I can’t imagine what it was like to go through a year like that.

Torrance is one of the most unrelenting clients I have ever had. Usually I have to hold him back from pushing TOO hard.

So here he is today flipping tires.

He’s squatting and deadlifting 200-300lbs for reps. He doesn’t need his crutches. Is he back to 100%? Not yet, but I have no doubt that he will be with time. He’s got the effort part down.

There is not “secret” program he’s been following. Just lots of consistent hard work. Showing up and pushing every single day.

Be like Torrance.
