Competitive bodybuilding is one way that David Lyons conquers multiple sclerosis (MS). Diagnosed with MS in 2006, David is motivated to educate and inspire people living with the disease to focus on fitness and nutrition and to develop a mindset that anything is possible. In 2012, with his wife Kendra Lyons, R.N., David founded the MS Fitness Challenge (MSFC) charity to help bring his message worldwide. David has received the Milestone Award from the National MS Society, and in 2015, he was presented the Health Advocate Lifetime Achievement Award by Arnold Schwarzenegger. David is now a Founding Partner of the National Fitness Hall of Fame Institute. The NFHOF’s Institute will produce educational courses, books and other materials designed to Educate, Motive and Inspire. These “Lessons from Legends” and today’s “Fitness Superstars” will be most sought after by today’s rising-stars in the fitness field as well as the general public. Keep an eye out for more information as we move this great initiative forward.
He’s also the author of “David’s Goliath: Winning the Battle Against All Odds” (2013) and “Everyday Health and Fitness with Multiple Sclerosis: Achieve Your Physical Wellness While Working with Limited Mobility” (2017).
