45-Year-Old One-Armed Fitness God: His Muscle State Rivals Anyone, Relying on a 'Belt'
Fitness for ordinary people is just a way of movement to change shape and body health, but for some people it is to regain confidence, get out of the low point of life, and even can be an indispensable part of life. Mickael Louvel (·) is one of them, a fitness legend and a legendary figure in the bodybuilding world. His inspirational videos were once frantically reposted by netizens. He is also affectionately called 'One-Armed Man' by netizens. His most famous life motto is 'No one can stop me, I love lifting weights.'
Tomorrow and accidents will never know which one will arrive first, and the most uncontrollable in life is accidents. Beautiful plans are broken by one accident, breaking the original expected life. He was not born disabled, started contacting fitness at the age of 18, dreaming of becoming a top bodybuilding gentleman through his own efforts. In just four years, he has already stepped onto the bodybuilding stage. But that year, a car accident, severe injuries, had to amputate, almost crushed his dream. It took a year and a half for his body to slowly recover normally.
Although he lost a limb, his iron-like will did not let him give up his dream. He believed that the body could be disabled, but the heart cannot. When the body recovered, the first thing he did was to return to the gym to train. But the road is step by step, far more difficult than imagined. Losing a limb made his training completely different, almost like a fitness beginner. Even a simple action was difficult to complete.
As time went on, he gradually adapted to his new body. Now at 45 years old, 22 years have passed, and his passion and enthusiasm for bodybuilding have never diminished, and he will never miss a training. And he will always exceed the training task. He knows that to achieve results on the bodybuilding stage, he needs to work harder than ordinary people. When training the lower body, it was fine, but in the upper body part, due to the lack of special equipment in the gym, it was difficult for him to master balance. So over the years, he relied on a 'belt' to easily play all the equipment in the gym and not afraid of heavy weights.
As early as 2002, he already won his first gold medal. Since then, he has never left this stage. The European champion in 2013, the world champion in 2014, and he is still active on the bodybuilding stage until now, all achieving good results. Age and body are not the reasons to defeat him, but the mindset is his stumbling block.
Now exercise has become one of his habits. Occasionally, he will also participate in some fitness exhibitions to promote the cause of bodybuilding and let more people understand the true meaning of sports, so that more people can join the sports family. He will also make special makeup to attract more attention because of his different figures. He uses his story to inspire countless people. He hopes that people who encounter problems will actively face life. If you can't change it, accept it calmly and create a beautiful life for yourself.
