THE REAL REASON I STARTED MY FITNESS JOURNEY
Freshmen year on my first bus to school
This girl caught my eye
It was one of those moments where your young and you just become almost obsessed
I didn’t know any better
I nervously tried to talk to her
I added her on social media
I was willing to do whatever it took to make her mine
I overheard one day she liked guys with abs
And I said to myself “okay we’re getting abs”
That month I joined wrestling because I had heard wrestling got you abs
So I got the abs, asked her out and she said no…
I was broken to say the least
But then I saw how this obsession lead me to getting in crazy shape, led me to joining a sport that taught me so many valuable lessons
I think a lot of us are chasing this one result
But what we don’t realize is who we become in the process..
I became an athlete, I became someone who new desires and ambitions, I pushed myself to a place I never thought I could go…
All because I wanted to impress a girl.
And she ultimately rejected me.
BUT WHO I BECAME…I wouldn’t change for the fucking world
I’m so glad I got rejected, I’m so glad I became obsessed with the journey because that shit made me
That gave the strength to keep on my fitness journey and write this to you
