Nick Hammond, aka “Nick the Trainer Dude” will praise God and smile as his flexes up on you. His loving and infectious spirit distracts you from the pain and challenges he’s overcome. In some ways, Nick’s story reminds me of Job in the Bible, and along those lines, despite his suffering, Nick never gave up his faith in God. Nick Hammond is a beacon of hope.
