Michael Gaudet joins Beast Over Burden to share his remarkable story of powerlifting after a heart attack, living with type 1 diabetes for 50 years, and becoming a world champion at 62.

Michael has lived many athletic lives: wrestler, competitive cyclist, sports car racer, mountaineering instructor, and competitive powerlifter. After surviving a 100% LAD "widowmaker" blockage in 2023, he returned to heavy training, competed at World Cup Masters, earned a spot on the U.S. team, and won a world championship in Seoul.

Niki, Andrew, and Michael discuss strength training after 60, training with type 1 diabetes, rebuilding after a heart attack, the value of coaching, why consistency matters more than complexity, and how strength supports a life full of adventure.
