My journey to becoming a fitness professional began long before 2008, I didn't know it at the time. The reasons I did push-ups and pull-ups in my room were not unusual for an 8th grader. Most early teen boys want to be bigger and stronger than the "popular" kids.
In this episode I go completely raw and unscripted sharing my secrets and being vulnerable with you about my workout origins. These vulnerabilities drove me to pursue an insecurity that became a career. It's probably not the story you think if you follow me on social media. Take a listen and maybe you can connect on a deeper level with me.
