Episode Description
Wes takes us backstage at The 2024 Paris Olympics weightlifting event and shares about the anxiety that can build when you have 6 lifts that will define 4 years of hard work.
He told some great stories about the Olympic experience and his roommates at the Olympics this year giving a behind the scenes look at what it’s like to be an athlete participating in the Olympics.
We discussed what it takes to be at the Olympics and the sacrifices that have to be made to compete at such a high-level.
We got into the longevity benefits of lifting weights and the difference it can make in the lives of those that take it on. Wes believes lifting is a skill that should be passed onto your kids. I know I want it to be part of the legacy that I leave my kids with.
Wes talks life after weight lifting and what his plans are now with his training and building his gym at Be Somebody Gym.
