[WE WON] ⚔️

The sweetest victory is the one against yourself. Defeating your old self is the fight worth fighting for. Every day is an opportunity to grow and repair.

Huge shoutout to all the supporters and friends alike, I appreciate the continued support and encouragement. Huge thank you to everyone that helped and contributed in any way. @sasquatchproam had a very organized system for the show, great event staff and fun show! Definitely recommend!! JUDGES- you guys always rock! I know judging can be tough and all of us competitors respect you guys more than you know! To all competitors, it was an honor sharing the stage with you guys, and always a pleasure. Work hard and never quit.

My new posing trunks were very comfortable and probably the best trunks I’ve ever worn. @radiant_physiquewear makes them with high quality material, and tailored to your custom measurements. Turnaround time was perfect! Got them made and delivered super fast.

I’ll always leave the last part of any story, the most important one, to my most important person @tatslil, my bride, my queen and my biggest fan & supporter ever. You are the reason I win, you and I won this together. I would never want to do life and take on tough challenges without you. You’re the reason, I can, I will, I must. ♥️

[Last two weeks post dump]

Enjoying life after the third and last show of the season has been refreshingly great. Feels good to be flexible with time, food and new memories. We don’t always get along, but it’s important to learn from our differences and mistakes and strengthen the marital bond. The strongest lovers also fight the hardest.

It’s also important to just be yourself and enjoy life, competitive bodybuilding takes a toll on relationships, so there has to be some balance between the two. I also work A LOT, so spending my time wisely is of upmost importance to me.

[Pain and Peace can share the same space] ⚔️
READ BELOW ⬇️

It took a lot for me to write this, I contemplated many nights whether I should reveal some past experiences with the world, but that’s the first steps to healing our mental health. I had a very rough upbringing as a child, one that I wouldn’t wish on any child these days, and after that I threw myself into a world of violence and tough times, I always bottled everything up because I wanted to be a strong leader for the ones around me. Or so I thought, until things took a deep plunge into a severe depression I felt only had one single way out..

I’m ashamed to say I’ve tried to end my life on many occasions, and for some otherworldly chance the weapon never discharged. It was at that time I decided I needed to repair myself, and fix the broken parts of me that lingered just like the sands of the places I went to stuck in my old fatigues.

If it wasn’t for bodybuilding, I would have probably been dead. Bodybuilding, and the gym in general saved me. It allowed me to let pain and peace cohabitate in the same mental space, bodybuilding gave me the chance at a new life, a new purpose, a new mission.

If you’re struggling, I urge you to not take the path that creates and leaves more pain and suffering for the ones around you that love you. Go to the gym, lift some weights and build yourself up better than before. You may never erase the past or all the trauma you’ve experienced, but you may strengthen yourself enough to carry those burdens as you become a better person overall. You got this, one day.. one victory at a time.

[ FEAR ] ⚔️
.
.
.
Let’s discuss it, the word fear. The feeling of fear. Fearing failure, fearing things around us, fearing in general. Join me in my mission to give us MEN motivation and mental health advice that may help you today, tomorrow or yesterday.

Fear is often looked at as a bad feeling, something that prevents us ultimately of doing more, or putting in more effort in our daily lives. I’m not ashamed to say, I’ve drowned myself in so much fear in my past. I’m human, and so are you. It’s alright to embrace fear, as it can be a crucial tool in self-development and succeeding at any given objective. Don’t shy away from it, use the fear to tap into other parts of you that often remain hidden in a sedentary moment.

The fear of failing has always pushed me harder to succeed at every objective and goal I set forth for myself. Fear has also kept my wits sharper in moments of near death. Utilize the tools your mind possesses instead of ignoring them.

Face your fears, use those fears to better yourself mentally, physically, financially and spiritually. You are much stronger and way more resilient than you believe yourself to be.

[SLICK PMC LOADOUT] ⚔️
.
.
.
Contracting was an important part of my career, as it taught me new things I wasn’t acquainted with prior to that, and this is just a sample of the plate carrier I would carry. The base plate carrier here is from @ferroconcepts “slickster” and I truly like the simplicity but also the adaptability of this carrier. I’ve got a @shawconcepts placard in the front. Basic, light and comfortable setup. I can scale this up or down depending on the job specifications. Wearing a jacket or button up over this is easy.

Rifle is a CZ Bren805

*nothing pictured is for sale.

[You are NOT dead, yet.] ⚔️♦️
.
.
YOU aren’t allowed to quit on me, those around you and most importantly YOURSELF. You’ve weathered the storms over and over again, and you’re still here. There is purpose for you, you’re meant for so much more than you want to believe.

Death may come knocking on your door, and we will open the door together and tell it to Fu*k off. Not today. Today we make the best of our breath, today we win the victories we set out to achieve, today we keep the promises long forgotten.

I will ALWAYS be here for you guys. I seek no fame, nor money or popularity as this benefits me not. I want to see my fellow man succeed, win, prosper and heal. My turbulent life and past has given me the opportunity to use my experiences to help those around me, and this is what I believe being a good man is about. Do not let your downfalls from your past define who you are now, now we change, grow and HEAL.

You will not walk alone. ⚔️

As always, I believe in the power of community and discussion. Use my platform and post to share your stories so that we may help each other become better men.

[14.5” DAGGER URGI] ⚔️
>> Breakdown >>

When it comes to weapon systems I prefer tools that work, have a purpose and can be applied for multiple uses. Such is the rifle pictured above.

Some of the key elements of this build truly make a difference for me, like the barricade bag from @stoic_solutions_ I find it extremely useful in situations where I need to use my surroundings for weapon stabilization. The @magpod magazine bases further help that scenario where I can utilize flatter surfaces for stabilization ( especially in prone shooting situations )

Let’s chat about this build 👇🏻 below! Ask questions and I’ll give you in depth explanations and answers of why I have certain things setup the way I do. Let’s all get educated!
