On this week’s episode of the Escape Your Limits Podcast, our guest is Flex Lewis, nicknamed the ‘Welsh Dragon’ and an undeniable force to be reckoned with in the world of professional bodybuilding. From humble beginnings, he conquered the competitive landscape by creating a record-setting 7-time Olympia 212 Showdown Champion. His sculpted physique and undeniable charisma propelled him to the top, solidifying his status as one of the most accomplished athletes in the history of the sport.

Since retiring from professional bodybuilding, Flex has been busy taking his learnings from the sport into business with the opening of The Dragons Lair Gym, first in Boca Raton, Florida and more recently as a Las Vegas location. 

Today, Flex Lewis shares all about:

·        Challenges of opening ‘The Dragons Lair’ Gym amidst the global pandemic

·        The importance of ensuring the right culture in a training environment

·        The discipline to approach each Mr. Olympia as if it’s his first

·        Working his way up to the top from humble beginnings

·        What was behind his decision to retire from professional bodybuilding

·        Why it’s key to never give up, stay committed to your path and have a moral compass
