About the author
Kevin's journey in the world of fitness and resilience is nothing short of extraordinary. At the young age of 22, Kevin ventured into the realm of powerlifting, a pursuit that would define his life for the next four decades. However, this journey was far from smooth, as he encountered numerous injuries and had to undergo multiple surgeries along the way. In fact, Kevin's friends and family playfully quip that he has spent more time in the operating room than many newly minted orthopedic surgeons. While a humorous remark, it bears a kernel of truth.
Kevin's medical history is a testament to his unwavering determination. He has endured six knee operations, undergone two major back surgeries, received two hip replacements, and even faced the challenges of brain surgery and brain radiation. It's no wonder that he has earned the moniker Life Warrior
for his indomitable spirit and relentless pursuit of a healthier, more vibrant life.
As the years rolled on, Kevin's passion for fitness never waned. At the age of 62, he embarked on a remarkable journey to shed 60 pounds, defying the notion that age is a barrier to transformation. This determination and resilience characterized his entire life.
Kevin's accomplishments in powerlifting are a testament to his strength and dedication. During the 1990s, he achieved an unofficial bench press record of a staggering 515 pounds while maintaining a body weight of 235 pounds (106.59 kg). Beyond powerlifting, he dabbled in various sports, including baseball, softball, football, and even tried out for minor league baseball and semi-pro football teams.
One of Kevin's defining traits is his ability to rebound from adversity. Regardless of how many times life has knocked him down, he has consistently found innovative ways to reinvent himself and emerge stronger than before.
In response to his challenges and experiences, Kevin developed ISO QUICK STRENGTH,
a program designed to help individuals get back on their feet as swiftly as possible. But it's not just about physical recovery; Kevin recognized the critical importance of the mind-body connection in overcoming difficult times.
His efforts to assist others extend beyond fitness programs. Kevin has shared his wisdom and insights through a blog and authored books aimed at helping people rise above adversity. His overarching message is clear: Those who quit will always fail.
This simple yet profound mantra encapsulates the essence of Kevin's life journey—a journey marked by resilience, determination, and a relentless pursuit of personal growth and well-being. After a remarkable 37-year career as a filmmaker and video producer, Kevin now wields the mighty pen to craft captivating stories in the form of books.
Chapter 1: The Preconceptions of Turning 50
The Milestone Birthday
Turning 50 is a milestone that many people approach with a mix of excitement and trepidation. It is a time when one transitions from middle age to a new chapter of life, and it often comes with a range of emotions and reflections. In this subchapter, we will explore what turning 50 truly means and shed light on what they don't tell you about this significant milestone.
As you reach the age of 50, you may find yourself contemplating what you have accomplished so far and what lies ahead. It is a time for self-reflection, a chance to reassess your goals and dreams. But what they don't tell you is that turning 50 is not the end; it's just the beginning of a new and exciting phase of life.
One aspect that surprises many is the sense of liberation that comes with turning 50. You start to care less about what others think and become more comfortable in your skin. This newfound confidence allows you to pursue your passions and take on new challenges without fear of judgment.
Another truth about turning 50 is the importance of self-care. You may have spent the previous decades prioritizing others, whether it was raising a family or building a career. But now is the time to focus on yourself. It's okay to put your needs first and make choices that contribute to your well-being and happiness.
