It’s been a sad week for us here at Fitness For Function. One of our clients passed away on Friday. John Sinclair worked with me for over 5 years after he had a stroke back in 2005-06. He lost total motor function of his right arm, his right leg was about 60%, a G-tube for feeding, and wheelchair bound for most of the day. But, this didn’t stop John from giving it all he had to try to better himself. At times the past few years, I had him up walking around with his cane. And, for awhile there one of his favorite exercises were squats. Not too bad for a person with his limitations and in his late 70′s. He will truly be missed as he was a big inspiration in my life and to many others. The determination and commitment he showed was unprecendented. So, when you are having a bad day and don’t feel like getting up and going to the gym, think about John’s struggles and limitations, then make your choice. You only have one body and one life to live, take care of it as it will not last forever. RIP John Sinclair!
What a sweet tribute, Louie.
