Out of the Shadows is the inspiring true story of Lamar Gant, a man who fought through many challenges to become a successful international world record-holding power lifter. After meeting the wife of a fan one day at the market, he realized that there were a number of errors in people’s knowledge about him. This included his basic biography and also his records. This inspired Gant to write this book, a personal memoir exploring his childhood, his challenges, and his ultimate triumphs.

Enjoyable and inspirational read

I just finished reading this book which I very much enjoyed. I purchased it because I also have scoliosis and enjoy lifting weights. I'm going to keep this book in my gym bag! Lamar Gant has many impressive accomplishments and after reading this I can see that he is also a very good hearted, humble person. I'd love to meet him in person some day!
