Do you realize what a gift this ONE life truly is? How do you find your self worth and overcome life's challenges to enjoy that gift? How do you improve at Masters Swimming? Wellness and high performance coach Nordine Zouareg, author of the book Inner Fitness , talks with Kelly and Maria about how he overcame physical challenges and anxiety in his childhood to become a world-renowned bodybuilder -- and how he continues to motivate others today through his books and coaching. Nordine Zouareg is a French-American fitness personality, high-performance coach and author who has won Mr. France, Mr. Europe, Mr. World and Mr. Universe. He was a sickly infant, with a birth weight of two pounds. Poor health played a huge role in his childhood, resulting in a lot of spinoff problems, such as bullying. During his teens, he focused on becoming a gymnast, eventually finding bodybuilding and earning his first national title in 1985. He went on to win Mr. Universe twice - in 1986 and 1988. Today he is an author and promotes his “mind over body” philosophy.
