I was 240lbs at 15 years old and only 5'10". Sports were hell and I sucked at them big time. I wanted to be a star athlete and so the discord became clear.....being a fatty and a star athlete not conducive so changes had to be made! I starting eating right and working out the only way I knew how. Move my ass and eat clean! In just under two years I was 6' tall and down to 200 pounds. I took this new motivation and accomplishment in stride and wanted to see what I could do if I really applied myself all out to reach the ultimate level of physique sports and athletics. To this day that journey continues.
No other activity gives me the pride, pleasure, gratification and joy then fitness training does. The high I get before, during and after every workout is unlike any other feeling I can think of. When you can take full control of your health and your body you can control anything in your life! I have seen the spill over effect myself that being fit, healthy and well has on my life. I have seen it in others as well. The more people I can impact with this same experience and lifestyle adoption the more grateful I am to the sport that helped me turn my life around for the better.
