Connect What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

Growing up, I was insecure about my body. I was either chubby or skinny fat with a big stomach and skinny arms, and I avoided situations where I had to take my shirt off. Fitness changed my life. What fuels me now is becoming confident and comfortable in my own skin. Watching my body and mindset improve feels like leveling up in a video game. Training taught me discipline, self respect, and pride in who I am becoming.

What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?

I used to box, and while it kept me in shape, it did not get me where I wanted to be. I was lean but lacked muscle. I always loved lifting but did not know how to train properly. I took the time to research and learn. I now follow a push pull legs split, track my macros, and eat well. I am currently on a lean bulk with high protein, high carbs, and low fat to fuel growth and performance.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I won the 20000, the first thing I would do is help my mom by giving her about 10000. She has always supported me and sacrificed for me, so giving back matters to me. I would invest the rest when I turn 18 to build my future and set myself up long term.
