After 12 Spinal Surgeries Ronnie Coleman is Still Training Legs Like a Beast!

Ronnie Coleman is pushing himself despite his history of numerous spinal surgeries.

Facing adversity and coming through the other side is the definition of being a champion. Ronnie Coleman has been through his fair share of adversity throughout his career but still manages to push himself in spite of everything he’s faced.


Suffering from so many different injuries during his career, Ronnie Coleman has undergone surgery after surgery to repair the damage done to his body through years of brutal training.

But the eight-time Olympia champion isn’t letting that slow him down.

While Ronnie Coleman may not be at one hundred percent, the man considered by many to be the GOAT is still pushing his limits in the gym. The Instagram post below showcases Ronnie Coleman training legs like an absolute savage!

Trying my best to get back in shape. Legs are tiny these days but that doesn’t stop me from trying to get them bigger. 12 spine surgeries has me down but not out. Once a champion, always a champion. It’s all about mindset. My record and my stats alone are enough for me to throw in the towel. But stats has nothing to do with wanting to be in shape, wanting to look good, wanting to be good, no matter what. I know I don’t have nothing to prove. But like I said, I wanna look good, I wanna be in great shape, I wanna look like I still compete, I wanna walk again. This is why I still train, I do it because I still love it so I will probably do it till I die. God knows I don’t want to die in the gym but if that happens, God Bless me. Once again it’s on like a marijuana bong. Yeah Buddy!!
