ptatc Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Good article. He carries the banner for our profession. The was an error in the article. When he chipped out Walker's teeth he was having a seizure not a stroke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool to see a trainer get such personal credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsox Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Herm has lost some weight the last few years. Wonder how much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure of the exact amount but he looks much better and is much healthier at 60 than he was in his 40's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 QUOTE (ptatc @ May 24, 2013 -> 07:38 AM) He had a surgery to help lose weight. I'm not sure of the exact amount but he looks much better and is much healthier at 60 than he was in his 40's. His BIF (Butt in front) has dissappeared. My buddy used to do an impression of Herm running on to the field, it cracked me up every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I used to love watching Herm and Ozzie race back to the dugout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he had the surgery lost a bunch of weight, gained some back and is now down again. He has really battled it and come out strong.
