In 2012, Kirk was paralyzed from the chest down in a car accident; he was told he would never have use of his hands and arms again. Today, Kirk sat up independently from laying flat on his back for the first time since the accident during his training!! We are so proud of you!!
Nothing shows God’s glory more than a man who was told he would never walk again, leading a walk for others looking to attain the same outcome. The ripple affect of one instance has spawned the metamorphosis in lives of individuals across the world.
Greatness isn’t in the air, or the building you train in, or the field you play on. It’s inside you and it’s your job to get it out!! Pat Mcafee has continuously made the commitment to be great!! It’s an honor to call you family my brother. Love you beast!!
