B.C. Burn Survivor Finds Confidence, Capabilities Competing in Strongman
- In May, Ray competed in his second strongman event at the Eighth annual Cariboo's Strongest in Williams Lake after surviving a severe military accident in 2002.
- The accident burned 80 percent of Ray's body, led to the amputation of his left foot, and initially made walking and gym workouts impossible.
- Despite these challenges, Ray used crutches and crawled on his knees to train, meeting strongman competitor Stefan Hall at the gym and gradually joining powerlifting and strongman competitions.
- Ray acknowledged that while physical disability imposes certain restrictions, maintaining an open mindset can unlock boundless opportunities. Meanwhile, Warren, whose wife Cherie Ray shared this insight, achieved a personal record by deadlifting 320 pounds.
- Ray's participation shows determination overcoming physical limits, while Warren's achievement highlights exceeding personal boundaries in strength training.
