Get to Know Steve Wedel, Impact Sports and Fitness Member

Impact Sports and Fitness member, Steve Wedel, has had to fight a battle he didn’t choose, but coming to Impact Sports and Fitness has helped him tremendously in winning the battle at age 74.

Six years ago, Steve was infected with the West Nile Virus, and it took away the full use of his legs. “The trainers at Impact Sports and Fitness helped me SO much to get better, helping me to get my leg strength back,” said Steve. He still needs the assistance of a walker in getting around, but Steve continues to come to Impact Sports and Fitness to work on his leg strength.

“I enjoy coming to Impact Sports and Fitness because it’s like family, a place for some social time, and it helps me get stronger,” Steve said. His hometown is Abilene, and many in the area know Steve as Coach Wedel, since he was a long-time coach at Abilene High School coaching football and basketball. Steve has 160 acres of land south of Carlton with a cabin on it and some cows. He enjoys ranching, hunting, fishing, spending time with his grandkids, and he loves to travel.
