Michael White fell in love with an Iranian girl. He picked romance, left for Iran and went to be with his wife. Until the government of Iran took Michael's arrival as a bad thing. He was arrested and charged with crimes, including offending the Ayatollah. Michael was convicted and sentenced to prison. He appealed that decision and was sent back to prison with more crimes! It appeared that Michael would perish in prison. Cue COVID and President Donald Trump's State Department.

He invented the BOSU® Balance Trainer in 1999, a widely used fitness device designed to improve balance and functional strength. Here's the link to get David's Best Selling Book. Every Step Stronger https://link.amazon/B01LPNeWP Book Blub: Transform your daily movement, fix posture imbalances, and unlock lifelong physical capability—starting with the way you walk. Every step you take is training your body for strength or breakdown. In Every Step Stronger, David Weck—inventor of the BOSU Balance Trainer and creator of WeckMethod— reveals a practical path to better movement, greater confidence, and peak physical performance. After debilitating back pain forced him to rebuild his own body, Weck spent decades exploring gait training, balance, coordination, and human performance. His discovery begins with one simple principle: Every step is a rep. Small imbalances repeated over millions of steps quietly shape the way your body moves. By improving the quality of those repetitions, walking itself becomes a daily opportunity to build joint mobility, foot strength, and core stability.
