The journey to stage.

Starting weight 113kg weight the morning of the show 81.5kg.

Couldn't be prouder of my old self, the day I joined I made a promise to myself that I would be proud of the past me. That day was where it all changed, even though at that moment I didn't even know I was going to compete and bodybuilding wasn't a thing for me at the time until February 2025.

Decision made to compete and got to work.
Stuck to the goal and didn't give up no matter how many people looked and laughed when you tell them you're training to compete, thought it was a joke and taking the piss.

Not everyone will support you and that's fine, free fuel for the fire.
The people you meet along the way and the vast amount of knowledge learnt is priceless. Met some amazing people and have a lot of people to thank for, especially the man that taught me the majority of what I know @callum_precisioncoach so for that I will always remember and be very thankful for.

@shannonsmithfitness1 my posing coach, what a job Shannon had getting me ready 🤣 posing is hard but with the help of Shannon I actually felt confident on stage. I wouldn't have made it up the steps without all the help of Shannon. Couldn't recommend Callum and Shannon anymore. Both are amazing at what they do. They helped me achieve what I thought to be impossible.

There's many more people to thank but most importantly of all in the words of snoop Dogg. I would like to thank me, myself and I 🤣🙌 for making the changes, pushing on the hard days and never quitting.

So my fitness journey started on September 3rd 2024 joining a gym and trying to lose weight and get a bit healthier.

The journey from just weight loss and being more healthy through to training to compete has been nothing short of amazing and I have loved every moment of it so far!

I once was that bloke that claimed to be fat through genetics or didn't have enough time to exercise.
This is complete nonsense and I was just lazy.

It's amazing the difference small changes everyday make over a long period of time. by @brussell0310
