I started my fitness journey because, honestly, I just wasn’t feeling my best. I felt tired all the time, kinda sluggish, and just wasn’t happy with how I looked or felt. I wanted to get stronger, have more energy, and feel more confident in my own skin. Plus, I kept hearing how important it is to stay active for your health, and I figured it was time to stop making excuses. I knew if I didn’t start making some changes, I’d just keep feeling stuck. It wasn’t about some big goal at first – just wanted to feel better, you know?

I started my journey after a breakup, Carlos. I wanted to channel all that energy into something positive. Now, building strength and helping others as a personal trainer is my life’s passion.

Fitness started as a way to lose weight, but it quickly turned into a love for pushing my limits. Now it’s about discipline, strength, and always striving to be better.

For me, it was realizing I was out of breath just climbing stairs. I decided to take control of my health before it got worse. Fitness gave me confidence I never thought I had.

My turning point was seeing my reflection one day and realizing I wasn’t happy with the person I saw. Starting bodybuilding helped me transform not just my body, but my mindset too.

Growing up, I was always the skinny kid. People underestimated me because of my size. I wanted to prove to myself and others that strength isn’t just physical—it’s mental too.

Lars here! I work in a stressful finance job, and lifting became my escape. The gym is the one place I can disconnect, de-stress, and focus on myself. It’s my therapy.

My journey began when I became a nutritionist. I realized I couldn’t just preach healthy living—I had to practice it too. Now I’m passionate about balancing good food with effective training.

My uncle was my inspiration. He’s been lifting for years, and I wanted to follow in his footsteps. Now, I’m learning the basics and loving the progress I see in myself.
