<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Every year, I make a point of spending some time with Pierre Roy, my mentor.<\/p>\n
We take time to discuss methods, systems, technique, and new discoveries in the strength game.<\/p>\n
Basically anything and everything strength, speed, and power.<\/p>\n
He is a simple man who has a simple and happy life with his wife, Clare.<\/p>\n
In my opinion, his passion for the sport of Olympic weightlifting is unmatched.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not just the love of the sport or working with kids, he\u2019s obsessed with developing champions.<\/p>\n
He told me:<\/p>\n
\u201cWorking with kids is not enough, I need to find and develop world-class athletes. It takes me three years to develop junior national team members and over eight years to develop senior national team members. I\u2019m sixty-seven, so I\u2019m running out of time. One day, I hope that perfect specimen will walk through that door.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
This is how he thinks and this is why I\u2019m so drawn to him.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s about results and creating extraordinary athletes.<\/p>\n
This is why I come back year after year to learn, grow, and be humbled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
