Fitness start: “My father got me into fitness. He used to let me watch him train in our garage and it inspired me to be just like him when I got older.”
Fitness goal: “My fitness goal is to be healthy externally and internally. I want to be shredded, with my heart, arteries and bones functioning perfectly.”

I’m a vegan.
“Breakfast for me is organic oatmeal, milk and cinnamon. Lunch is usually a veggie bowl, with broccoli, brown rice, quinoa, sweet potatoes, avocados, and if I want extra protein, I’ll add Beyond Meat [a plant-based meat substitute].”
Physical: I do metabolic movements.
“My most effective fitness activities are metabolic movements such as burpees, sprints, full-body presses, really just anything to jump your heart rate. I think HIIT [high-intensity interval training] training is the most efficient way to get fit fast.
“Regarding COVID-19, the most important thing is to stay home. At home you can do bodyweight exercises. For example, try body squats, sit-ups, burpees and calf raises.”
Mental: I find humor in life.
“To create balance in my life, I find the humor in every situation no matter how bad, or how sad, I always find the humor in it. If you can laugh at it, you can get over it.”
Spiritual: I pray every morning.
“Prayer is powerful. I pray every morning and during the day too, if need be. I also pray before I go to sleep.”
