Norbert Schemansky
by Marty Gallagher
“...the first weightlifter in history to earn four Olympic medals…Norbert won an Olympic gold medal; a silver medal and two bronze medals spread over four games. He won the world championship three times and the Pan American Games. He was the Olympic champion in 1952. He set an all-time world record in the snatch in 1962 when he split-snatched a seemingly miraculous 363-pounds. Norb set 75 national, world, and Olympic records.”

Any chance he would be more willing to discuss his training protocols now that he's not busy smashing records? We need to hurry up, though. He's 90.
Anyone in that area?
