Why I Got Started
dot

I was not sufficiently content with how I looked and how my body looked. To be honest, I was terrified with how I looked. I was weighing only 135 pounds, no muscle, super skinny and no definition what so ever.

I reached a point in which I said to myself, "I need to start hitting the gym and focus on transforming my body to a point where I'm content with it."

I met this guy named Josh who inspired me with his positive attitude toward living a healthy lifestyle while being physically fit as well. We became best friends and we started working out together.
