DESPITE living with severe forms of cerebral palsy, a husband and wife duo are taking the bodybuilding world by storm. Wade McCrae Washington and BJ Glaze - both now 47 - were diagnosed with the disorder at birth, but they have never stopped dreaming big. The married couple also live with scoliosis, a rare spinal disease, which adds to their difficulty to perform everyday tasks. It was more than 20 years ago since Wade and BJ met at college in Houston, Texas, where they now live together - and they haven’t looked back since. Quitting has never been an option in their world and that’s largely down to their expert trainer, Tina Chandler, and motivator, Carl Ducena, two people that have played a pivotal role in their lives. Since his first training session with Tina, Wade has gone on to become a World Champion in the Adaptive Bodybuilding Division – an extraordinary achievement. Wade and BJ now help Tina and Carl with their ‘Normal To Be Fit’ campaign, where they help to inspire others to get fit despite living with a disability.
