Wild weight fluctuations are generally something to avoid—unless you're Tommy Kono. The Japanese-American weightlifter set records in the lightweight, middleweight, light-heavyweight, and middle-heavyweight classes. Along the way he racked up one silver and two gold medals at the 1952, 1956, and 1960 Summer Olympics, along with top honors at every World Weight Lifting championship during that period. After retiring from competition, he went on to coach the U.S. Olympic weightlifting team in the 1976 Summer Games. Even today, at 82 years old, he holds weightlifting clinics at his home in Hawaii.
