Health and fitness are how I meet life with strength and clarity. Challenges are inevitable, but training the body, mind, and soul prepares you for all of them. Football taught me total commitment, presence, and joy—the moments when effort becomes flow. Today, I train for longevity, energy, and freedom. My goal isn’t perfection, but full function—living with vitality, confidence, and purpose for as long as possible.
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?I train the way life demands—full body, adaptable, and powerful. My routine blends sprints, endurance, plyometrics, balance work, and strength training, often outdoors. Football keeps me sharp and competitive, while the gym builds explosiveness, stability, and resilience. I listen to my body and train what’s needed, not what looks good. Health, for me, is movement, capability, and longevity.
What would you do with $20,000?I’d use the $20,000 as a proving ground—creating and documenting a real-world fitness challenge centered on performance, not aesthetics. By training participants, measuring results, and sharing the process openly, I’d scale what works into coaching and content built on proof, not promises.
