How did you get started with bodybuilding?
Back in high school I played soccer a lot and it kept me very fit. Although it wasn’t until I was 17 that I started going to the gym. I remember when I had first started I would train very often and with a lot of intensity. My friends would train with me too and were always there to push me to my limits. 4 months later I had noticed some great changes to my physique and that was when I began to fall in love with the weight room.
The gym became an escape from the world and I have been addicted ever since!
Where does your motivation come from?
It’s something from within, something inside of me that just wants it real bad. The whole idea of training and the pump, I just love it!
