Reseña del libro "heart of steel,the dan lurie story (en Inglés)"
Dan Lurie has done it all, conquering many obstacles throughout his 70-year career to become one of the sporting world's most endearing and multi-talented figures. Growing up in the Great Depression, Dan realized that if he were to make it, he would need to work extremely hard. Overcoming serious health problems and extreme poverty he did just that to become one of the 20th century's most recognizable bodybuilding pioneers and health promoters. From humble beginnings to the very top of the fitness world through persistence and dogged determination, Dan's story shows exactly what can be done with strength of mind and an unwavering commitment to excellence. That Dan has traversed the fitness world to become a successful bodybuilding competitor and contest promoter (with the WBBG), sports equipment manufacturer, television star (Sealtest Dan, The Muscle Man), magazine publisher of six titles including Muscle Training Illustrated, gym owner, anti-drug crusader, trainer, supplement company owner and devoted family man says much about his character and his life story illustrates exactly how, with courage and determination, we can all achieve our very best.
