35. LES FLEISZIG
Episode description
Les Fleiszig is a former high school teacher and world powerlifting champion.
He's also humble, and was surprised we invited him to be a guest on this week's episode of Bonn Park.
His humility is part of his charm, which he has in great quantities, along with wit and spirit. We're confident you'll quickly see why we wanted him on the show.
For 18 years he was department head of technology at Resurrection Catholic Secondary School in Kitchener. He nurtured young brains and brawn, coaching football, hockey, wrestling, swimming, rugby, and powerlifting.
Yep, the humility is particularly refreshing given his resume.
We picked his considerable brain about building community, mentoring youth, inspiring others, and, of course, powerlifting. We think you'll be fascinated by his unique perspectives on everything from the art of lifting and teaching to rock and roll music and old school wrasslin’.
