‘Bullet’ Bob Armstrong Still Lifting Weights At 80
Age is just a number in the Armstrong family, particularly with its patriarch in “Bullet” Bob Armstrong. The father of Road Dogg, Brad and Scott may be 80 years old and battling cancer, but that doesn’t corral the legendary veteran from pulling a few weights around. Referee Scott Armstrong snapped a photo of his dad doing a lat press that had a 100 lbs he had to pull down.
“Today my 80yr old Dad, @WWE Hall of Famer Bullet Bob, asked if he could come over to get a workout! He’s got bone cancer in his ribs, shoulder and prostate and chose not to go through any treatment (his choice)! I put 30lbs on there and he said, ‘Gimme 100lbs!!!’ #Motivation“
