Kim Rahir shares her journey from being diagnosed with MS to becoming a weightlifting champion. She grew up in Germany, loving school and gymnastics. After being diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome and later MS, she decided to make herself insanely strong and started lifting heavy weights. She found that weightlifting not only improved her physical strength but also boosted her confidence and mindset. Kim went from being in a wheelchair to now being without treatment for six and a half years. She joined a weightlifting club and started competing, discovering a whole culture of master sports. Her story is inspiring and shows the power of resilience and determination. Kim Rahir discusses her journey from gymnastics to weightlifting, her work as a coach for women in their 40s and beyond, and the importance of building muscle for overall health. She emphasizes the need to focus on how exercise makes you feel rather than how it makes you look, and the role of nutrition in supporting muscle growth. Kim also encourages embracing change by starting small and being adaptable. She shares her advice for her 40-year-old self and her desire to be remembered as someone who is curious, open, and helpful.
