#40 Chris Duffin: Adversity, Strength, and Success

February 23, 2016 By Jim Harshaw

#40 Chris Duffin: Adversity, Strength, and SuccessToday I bring you Chris Duffin.

Chris grew up in a world of poverty that most of us will never experience let alone witness. He spent much of his youth traveling with his family to find work, living in the wilderness, and even spending a harsh winter living in the back of a pickup truck. When putting himself through college he adopted and raised his three teenage sisters.

Chris went on to graduate from the Oregon Institute of Technology with a degree in engineering then went on to get an MBA. He has a decade of executive-level company and division turnaround work.

He’s also a world-class powerlifter, entrepreneur, and body movement specialist. The owner of Elite Performance Center, he’s the only person in the world today squatting and deadlifting over 900 lbs at his body weight. Chris has owned several world records over the course of his career. He’s also the only powerlifting strength coach who is regularly invited to teach PhD level courses on human movement.

Chris has powerful messages on how to create lasting success that he’s learned through adversity, powerlifting, and wrestling.
