"Death is undefeated, but I'll take it to three overtimes. That's strength."
Houston strength coach Kurt Hester was diagnosed with Stage IV melanoma. Six months later, he may have lost his hair, but not his indomitable spirit.
More from @JenLada:
13 weeks ago I was told to go make peace with my family, make sure my Will was in order & contact Hospice. Then I could only high bar squat the bar for 3. 8 weeks later I could do 95 lbs for multiple sets of 3. Today I hit 205 for 3 on quarter squats.
