Renegade Radio With Jay Ferruggia: Fitness | Nutrition | Lifestyle | Strength Training | Self Help | Motivation

From impoverished, hard, scrabble beginnings in Princeton, Minnesota, to center stage at Madison Square Gardens, Bob Backlund is the ultimate represenation of the All-American Guy. Originally gaining renown as a high school and  collegiate athlete, before becoming known to millions globally as Pro/Wrestling’s Three.Time World Champion—his appeal and accomplishments transcend the  realms of athletics and entertainment. Bob Backlund embodies that which is all too rare, pure and refreshingly  down to earth. He lives by a set of principles revolving around a positive mental  attitude—and an unrelenting belief in one’s self. Bob is as well known for two  words as he is for his athletic prowess, or as an entertainer: “Never capitulate” and “Positive Mental Attitude.” In this episode of Renegade Radio, Bob and I sit down to talk about the driving factors behind his success and reminisce on stories from his days as a pro wrestling champion, including the highs, lows, and hilarious moments of his career.
