At Scott Tully’s gym, it’s not uncommon to see grandparents deadlifting 300 pounds.
“(One gym member) came, she wanted to get back in shape and be able to play with their grandkids. Next thing you know, she’s breaking state records,” Tully said.
Scott Tully is the owner of Driven Fitness, a local gym in Salina. The gym was first opened because Tully’s training space in one of his friend’s basements was becoming too crowded. As the gym progressed after a merge and Tully now being the sole owner Driven Fitness trains many in the area, both for personal fitness and to help them compete in competitions.
SALINA David Powell has always dreamed of having a car of his own.
“I’m an impatient person. I want what I want when I want it and had to wait on other people up until now, so it’s like, I want to go somewhere and just get up and go. It’s freaking awesome,” Powell said.
After a process that was two and a half years long, Powell finally has a license and a specially modified car for him to drive independently. He recently drove himself to his job at Independent Connection for the first time.
Powell was born with leg and arm deformities that resulted in him having no hands and malformed legs. As the oldest of four kids, Powell saw his younger siblings eventually get their licenses before he did. Powell admits that his misplaced priorities earlier in his life stunted his ability to get his own car or achieve other things for himself.
