Darren Nemow Featured In Windsor-Hights Herald

Darren Nemow, who placed fifth in the 181's at last weekend's USAPL Men's Nationals, was featured on Friday in the Windsor-Hights Herald.

"My goal is to place in the top five," he said before the competition.
"If you can beat just one of those guys, you're good," he added, understating the fact that he now places in the top five out of thousands of competitors nationwide and could be eligible for international competition.

...Starting at age 15, Mr. Nemow said, he was fascinated by strength and started working out with his older brother. He called himself a kid who had the potential to get into trouble, who back then would spend too much time goofing off, skipping school and getting poor grades. Weight lifting, he said, turned all that around.
"It's kept me in great shape and taught me a life of discipline," he said.
Mr. Nemow said he believes getting involved in something as challenging as competitive weight lifting is one of the best things a teenager can do.
"When I see kids at the gym, I tell them not to be pressured," he said, referring to influences that could prompt teens into antisocial behavior.
Mr. Nemow said he hopes that organizations like USA Powerlifting can act as an example of what athletes can accomplish without the aid of synthetic chemicals.
