Meet Mukesh Singh Gehlot, the World Powerlifting Champion who made India proud
Gehlot’s early life struggles
He lost his mother at a very young age. His dad tried to force him to put more efforts on studies. But Gehlot realized that education is not his cup of tea. Hence, he started diverting his attention to sports. One day when he was playing football, he got glimpse of people working out in a gym nearby and that’s when his interests in body building were kindled.

Gehlot started competitive body building in 1997. His meal used to be 2 whole chickens, 25 eggs and 10 glasses of milk every day. His brother, a modest farmer used to provide him with these on a daily basis. As Gehlot wasn’t much well to do and didn’t have a permanent job, he couldn’t afford any muscle building supplements until 2002.
