“I Am Not Disabled For Having Less” | Xabi Osa: The Locker Room – Episode 4

“If I can do the same thing without an arm, that means we are both able. I am not disabled for having less.”
Often, the first thing that people see when they look at Xabier Osa is his missing limb. They think it’s a problem — a physical impairment that may have been due to an accident or illness.
But for Xabi, his physical health was never the thing standing in the way of his success. It was his mental health and attitude towards life.
After discovering exercise, Xabi’s outlook on life completely transformed. He is now a thriving functional fitness athlete and coach, with a mission to inspire and help others to achieve greatness.
Watch the final episode of The Locker Room series now to hear more of Xabi’s incredible story.
