082: Zhong Luo | The Bottom Line - Human Transformation
Zhong Lou’s path to MMA prominence was never in doubt. He started practicing karate not long after he learned to walk and talk and has mastered a strikingly diverse number of disciplines, from Chinese acrobatics to Mongolian wrestling, since. Forty years later Lou is determined to leave a legacy with his San Francisco gym, Dragon House MMA. The money to keep it up and running is not easy to come by, and it’s not unheard of for a student to sweep the floors in exchange for training. But the bottom line for Luo is human transformation, and in that he is making a tidy profit.Lessons: 1. Even in solitary endeavors, mastery often requires a team effort. 2. When money isn’t quite cutting it, passion will keep the doors open. 3. Fitness priorities shift with age; training for invincibility while young must gradually shift to training for health if one is to remain viable.
