Once, an unknown 17 year old won the Teen Mr New South
Wales bodybuilding competition in Sydney Australia. The same day he won the
Overall Mr New South Wales, becoming the youngest person ever to do so. This achievement has not been matched, or bettered, by anyone.
His name is John Terilli.
John went on to win the best in Australia and
subsequently the
Amateur Mr Universe title. He turned professional
and built an impressive career and reputation in the sport, culminating in
becoming the first, and only, Australian to ever win the
Professional Mr.
Universe title, which he achieved in England in 1994.
Ten years later, with a family, a mortgage and a gym,
John suffered a severe
rotator cuff tear in his right shoulder. Unable to exercise he battled
weight gain and a long rehabilitation schedule. This set in motion a
series of events which lead to him reinventing himself and continuing a 30 year
dream of becoming a household name.
"Rebuilding a Champion" follows John's story from the injury
and reconstructive surgery, through the long rehabilitation, and eventually the
re-attaining of the body he once had. All this while formulating diets and
exercises to build a package worthy of public recognition.
