Rob Kucher is a Professional Boxer with a 4-0 record in the 168lb. weight class. Rob has been training with us for some time now. I can not even begin to tell you what he has went through and what he has sacrificed to fight at this level.
Before Rob turned Pro, he dedicated himself to his training- winning the New York Golden Gloves (Middle Weight) and Florida Golden Gloves (Light Heavy Weight) in the "Open" division. After that, he quickly established a winning Amateur record proving he had what it took for a Professional career.
After Quickly establishing a Professional 4-0 resume, (some of those wins coming by K.O.), life threw some punches of it's own, sidelining Rob's boxing career. What was even more devastating for Rob was that it all came crashing down while preparing for his fifth fight. It was even hard for me to watch happen, because when you train someone for the right reasons, part of your life becomes their life, their goals become your goals. Imagine climbing the ladder and getting so high where you can almost see the light only to get thrown back down into total darkness.
It has been some time now since Rob last fought, but like the Japanese Proverb - "Fall down seven times, get up eight" is exactly what Rob is doing. He is not letting life dictate to him, but he is dictating his life by moving forward and preparing for that fifth fight!
A belt does not define a champion. What defines a champion is how he/she reacts when confronted with adversity. Check Rob out:
There is nothing impossible to him who will try

Quick Note: Our first (Of Many) interview has just been completed. It will be posted on our September update! I'm really excited about this one because it has a real message for anyone striving to achieve great things on and off the athletic playing field. All I can say is that it is about life, and not the typical generic B.S. that we usually see and read about. It embodies the very reason why I'm in the "Training" business.
