Bobrow's acumen in overcoming physical crises is a prized asset in instructing health club clients. People often overlook the most important commodity in physical fitness, he said. Anyone can lift weights, but not everyone does it properly. It's important that you know why you're doing something, and what you want to achieve. You've got to be able to pay the price.

Bobrow's harsh odyssey began when he was 13 and he was stricken with pain in both legs he could scarcely endure.

The closest explanation is that it is related to tarsal tunnel syndrome, which compresses the nerves and restricts the blood flow to the feet.
