LEGENDS NEVER DIE.

Paul’s journey began at eight years old after watching Don Reinhoudt at the World’s Strongest Man in 1978. Inspired, he received his first weight training kit that Christmas, sparking a passion for lifting that carried him through sports like baseball, hockey, and eventually high school and college football.

 

Paul chose to play football at Buffalo State College, where powerlifting and athletics became lifelong pursuits. As a powerlifter, he achieved world records in the 308 lb. weight class, including a 1147.5 lbs. squat, a 694.4 lbs. bench press, and a 2662 lbs. total. Inducted into multiple halls of fame, Paul’s achievements reflect his belief that anything is possible with dedication and commitment.

Fulfilling a lifelong dream, Paul opened Childress Performance, a gym designed to welcome all ages and skill levels. From young athletes to seasoned lifters, he wanted everyone to feel empowered, inspired by the same spirit that moved him as a child. Paul’s legacy lives on through his gym, where his mantra—"Different levels of dedication and commitment" is a core value.

 

He believed anything was possible if you were dedicated and committed. He was "all in" with everything he did. A challenge, in Paul’s eyes, was an opportunity, not an obstacle.
