Never Surrender: The Chris Molnar Story

Kodiak Bodybuilding Apparel presents Never Surrender: The Chris Molnar Story. This is the story of one of the most inspirational people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. In 2018 Chris Molnar, a 31 year old US Marine veteran, was diagnosed with lung cancer. The prognosis was bleak and doctors expected him to live only a few months. Chris however did not accept this as his reality and simply decided he was going to live. Through various treatments and his firm belief in exercising with weights (even sometimes against doctors wishes) he would go from being bedridden in an emaciated state to competing in a charity powerlifting meet organized to benefit less fortunate veterans. When I witnessed the incredible progress Chris was making I said to him "your story needs to be told" and we filmed this documentary. It is my wish that this video helps others who are up against similar circumstances and that he may inspire others long after he is gone. He is without a doubt the strongest man I know. I would like to dedicate this video to his family, his friends, and especially to his son Liam.

Chris was my section leader for a time in the Marines I will never forget that Man, very educated very intelligent thoughtful caring and ready to stand up to anyone and anything for what he believed was right. Only man I know that was deadlifting 4 plates with cancer and on a Nasal cannula. I will miss you Molnar. Man was beyond life.
