226. Rad Lopez, Peloton Instructor
from Hurdle with Emily Abbate Hosted by iHeartPodcasts
From a young age, Rad Lopez was taught that with hard work and dedication — anything is possible. For episode 226, he's talking through what that’s looked like in practice — from his early years growing up in the Bronx through these days sweating regularly on-camera as a @onepeloton favorite. Rad gets vulnerable, opening up about losing both his father and his stepfather, and what it felt like coming of age with a single mom that was constantly working to put food on the table. He also chats about working maitenance at a gym — where he was first inspired to get his personal training certification — and shares how he first got into one of his favorite activities, boxing. Plus: Feedback from his first job teaching group fitness, how he feels about teaching classes in Spanish, the special moment from his Cuba trip earlier this year, and what he really sees when he looks in the mirror.
