I was a very shy kid, lacked confidence, overweight, insecure and always at the back of the race.
However, I was always good at school and worked hard. Always on time, always did my homework and ALWAYS gave everything my best effort even if it wasn't enough to be the best.
I wasn't gifted with any spectacular genetics to be athletic, lean or build muscle. Everything I have is from consistency and hard work from a young age. Many have the ability to excel in their physique, build muscle, burn fat easily and achieve their goals far easier than others. I am one of the less fortunate ones when it comes to genetics, everything I've built and attained has come from hard work and consistency both with my physique and professional career. My mindset, work ethic and determination has been the key driver to achieving the things I've strived for and I'm not finished yet.
There is a lot more to achieve, many things I'm working towards and will continue to until I get there. I'm a firm believer that hard work and determination can out perform any genetic disadvantage that you may believe you have. I like to think that I'm living proof that achieving your physique goals naturally is possible.
Just turn up, work hard, be consistent and focus your energy towards your goals. It's that simple.
Working out is my way of expressing myself. When I train I'm free. Bodybuilding has grown my confidence and made me the man I am today. Focused, driven and passion about life.
Bodybuilding isn't just a hobby, to me its a way of life. I'll be bodybuilding to my final days on this great planet.
