Top athletes dedicate themselves to<br />
developing powerful bodies capable<br />
of astounding results. But even the<br />
strongest body is compromised by a<br />
weak mindset.<br />
Determination is an essential driving<br />
force behind performance. <strong>Issue</strong> <strong>11</strong><br />
features a group of highly skilled<br />
individuals capable of fusing their<br />
physical and mental powers with<br />
great success.<br />
Exemplifying dedication, Robert Durbin,<br />
a 67-year-old grandfather battling<br />
cancer continues to maintain a<br />
demanding exercise routine which includes<br />
his jaw-dropping bar workouts.<br />
Anthony Catanzaro (cover), a life-long<br />
fitness model, is determined to overcome<br />
Parkinson’s Disease using a holistic<br />
approach demanding mental, physical<br />
and spiritual dedication.<br />
Then there’s Betsy Shuttleworth and<br />
her student Bella Gantt, who are dedicated<br />
to the challenging art of contortion.<br />
Applying strict guidelines to<br />
help prevent injury, hours of practice<br />
have resulted in the execution of<br />
seemingly impossible tricks expressed<br />
with grace and fluidity.<br />
Placing emphasis on developing<br />
mental toughness, Karsten Jensen<br />
shares his specific training methods<br />
designed to bolster stamina and<br />
endurance. Known for his innate<br />
physical strength, powerlifter Tony<br />
Farrugia explains how and why he<br />
spends time tipping over cars with<br />
his bare hands.<br />
For nature lovers, Henk Bakker returns<br />
to show step-by-step how to<br />
build brawn along with a versatile<br />
battering ram from a self-cut log.<br />
And John Watson, a lifelong outdoorsman<br />
and athlete, outlines essential<br />
survival information for those<br />
who may find themselves in ruthless<br />
competition with Mother Nature.<br />
