    SZN 5 EP 7 - VICTOR INIESTRA @elmeroiniestra- El Sueño!!!

    How does one take their dreams and make them into reality? Victor sits down with me and gives me the low down on how his "go get it" attitude has helped him excel within many different avenues of life. We take a trip down memory lane and track what got him from HS fb to College FB and ultimately to becoming a top powerlifter and professional wrestler. Definately a fun one!
