Barwis and His Merriman (1x4)

Air date: Jul 30, 2014

Barwis’s granddad always taught him to finish what you start. When retired NFL star Shawne Merriman comes to the gym to train to be Hollywood’s next big action star, Barwis gives him a few lessons in crashing through a car windshield – and finds out where Merriman’s heart really still lies: back in pro football. Can Barwis convince him to go back? In the same episode, Barwis prepares promising young NASCAR driver Parker Kligerman for his next big race in Virginia. Parker’s suffered from a series of early exits thanks to bad luck and crashes, but Barwis is determined to make him finish the race, and finish it strong.
