Connect What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

I used to be the skinny kid. I hated my body. So I came to the gym and started going hard. I fell in love with it. I started doing personal training as a side job. I love the change. When people lose the weight and gain the muscle. The confidence they gain, the happiness, the discipline. After I trained my first client he went from 240 to 190 and i saw all these things happen to him. That's what drives my passion for heath and fitness. Inspire people to take the next steps and change their lives

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

Strength training. I love gym culture. Current maxes on all lifts: Bench 280, squat 455, deadlift 435. All of these lifts were at 175Lbs bodyweight. I'm actually bulking up so that I can hit 315 on bench. It's a number I've always wanted. However I also enjoy running, indoor and outdoor soccer leagues, calisthenics, pickleball and dieting or tracking calories.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would buy a newer car cause I've been driving a Saturn vue 2011 with 280,000 miles on it and I would move down to Florida with my fiance and start doing my personal training business there. Me and my fiance have always wanted to live on the coast and this would help actually so much. Being part of Mr.health and fitness too. It would mean the world
