Video: Kasper Woolley Discusses his Childhood Pituitary Tumor in 'No Excuses'
Squamish mountain biker Kasper Woolley smashed onto the scene last year after an impressive performance throughout the Crankworx Summer Series.
In preparations for this upcoming race season, Kasper is currently sidelined with a broken wrist. A common injury for most mountain bikers, but one all too familiar for the 22-year-old breakout athlete.
At a young age Kasper and his family discovered that he has a pituitary tumor, causing him to have low bone density. This makes it a lot easier to break bones - breaking at least one bone per year since the age of 5, Kasper has said.
Of course, broken bones and injury are par for the course in mountain biking but it's how Kasper bounces back from them that sets him apart.
To stay at the top of his craft, Kasper began to focus on building strength, aiding the work he was doing in the gym with Blonyx's HMB+ Creatine and Egg White Protein Isolate for recovery.
"Two main focuses for me are mobility and strength training," said Kasper. "In mountain biking, when you fall your shoulders usually take the majority of the impact. So that's the goal for me, is to build muscle around those areas so that they're not breaking and you're more durable."
Kasper's athletic ambition is to become a world champion. Simple as that.

In the first scene, I thought the sticker on his helmet was a Bentley one....
They will battle anyone like I said. If you use the letter M in your logo, claw marks, or the word monster, word beast, word unleash, they will oppose or sue you. They did this to the NBA team, Toronto Raptors, for using claw marks on a basketball. A team that has existed since the 80s was being sued for a new logo containing claw marks. 4 million dollars later and several years, Monster Energy lost.
You can read my story if you want if you gooogle search Monster Energy vs Monarch Energy. I may or may not be self promoting here just a little.
