Before we get to this months 'winning' excuse, I'd like to quickly introduce you to Nick Scott. Nick is a professional bodybuilder competing in the wheelchair division. In August of 1998 Nick was in a car accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down. Unable to walk his weight ballooned to 300 pounds. His football dreams where dashed but instead of feeling sorry for himself he started a grueling rehabilitation regimen that would see him walk without the use of crutches across the stage at his college graduation.
His new journey led him to competitive bodybuilding. Today, Nick Scott is the leading proponent in the development of professional wheelchair bodybuilding. Nick is one of the Highest Ranked Wheelchair Bodybuilders in the world and leads by example.
"If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, whatever you do you have to keep moving forward" - Martin Luther King Jr.
And now for the best excuse to workout second edition...
