My Road Road to Recovery
I am still here on earth for a reason!
Clayton Faulconer is like a cat who has 9 lives - I have used 5 lives of 9 and will not test 6!
My journey in life has been incredible !
I was near death when I was born; my blood was too thick and I was in an incubation chamber for over 3 months. I have been in 4 major accidents and have been lucky.
I now live in North Vancouver — in my opinion, one of the best places to live in Canada — I have had an amazing life, even after dealing with the injuries and setbacks from all the setvacks I have had.
Armwrestling saved my life
I chose armwrestling as the sport of choice for many reasons - it is: very competitive, rewarding, strategic and challenging. It keeps me lean, sharp and in good mental and physical condition.
In 2015 I hosted and organized the Canadian Armwrestling Nationals in Vancouver British Colunbia. I will host the Canadian Nationals again as soon as I can.
In 2018 – Through good diet and excercise, I lost 47 lbs of fat in 3 months and shortly after losing this weight, placed first at the Canadian armwrestling competition both right and left arms in Quebec shortly after losing this weight. The 2024 Canadian nationals are in Quebec once again. I did not place first, but placed 2nd in Quebec, masters class.
My primary goal is to teach my knowledge to as many people as possible. I hold no secrets - come and see the knowledge I have.
Miracle survivor of 4 major accidents
Accident #1 - In 1997 I was in a head-on collision North of Prince Geeorge, BC (Picture above).
I had severe lung damage, a head injury, and a broken right kneecap.
Accident #2 - In 2004, a friend of mine and I hit the back of a manure spreader (very shitty). I was a passenger in in this accident that happened near Mission, B.C. I suffered several broken bones insluding my right hip, left wrist and lacerations to my face.Accident #3 - 2018, I was hit by a car while walking across Knight St & 53rd in Vancounver, BC – In this accident I suffered an TBI (traumatic brain injury).
Accident #4 - 2024, I was hit from behind by a truck in Thailand that was going 10 times faster than me.
These accidents have made me realise how lucky I am to be alive and that the reason i am on earth is to teach people what I know best - how to armwrestle !
I get knocked down, but I get back up and don’t stay down
What has grown out of tragedy has been a blossoming new life for me and the armwrestling community.
I treat people as I would want to be treated and I am truly grateful for what I have!
Support me by ordering one of my amazing packages or videos or by getting personal training in the Vancouver area. Anyone can learn many of the secrets of my arm wrestling success! 💪 🍁
These pictures are brutal to see, but are of me after accident #3. I don't show these pictures to be negative, but to motivate people. When we set are mind to do something, anything is possible.
After accident #3, I was diminished to the point I was like a newborn baby. I had to re-learn how to eat, walk and talk. When the nurse reached across with food on a fork, I grabbed her hand like I would when I armwrestle someone.
What does this mean? I could armwrestle before I could eat!
