First you’ll notice how confident you become, then you’ll notice how people treat you differently because you have discipline and you have stronger mentality than 99% of people on this earth. Last you’ll notice how you’ve changed as a person, you prioritised yourself and you goals over short term temptation like sugar cravings, having a couple of drinks with your friends and getting a burger from mcDonalds because it was more convenient. It’s a journey that never stops, but keeps giving.

My fitness journey began many years ago and to a beginning it was all about appearance. I wanted to be the most lean, shredded and jacked. I was never overweight, as young had an ED and chased being skinny. Later in my life I had a tough period through a divorce and spent many hours in the gym as I found it almost therapeutic. The only problem was I kept drinking, partying and eating unhealthy amounts of sugar on the weekends and then eating nothing between to stay lean. Very unhealthy balance, but I managed to build a pretty good physique with all the protein I never missed to eat. 

So in 2023 I decided to enter NPC Sweden and do my debut in bikini fitness, I didn’t think I had enough muscle but went with the mentality to get experience. I did some research and planned the prep myself since I just finished my certificate as personal trainer and thought, how hard can it be? The prep changed me instantly, I stopped drinking and haven’t been drinking since. I started looking at nutrition differently. But most importantly it changed my mentality. The confidence boost is unmatched. I have discipline that stretches further than just training and nutrition. I don’t settle for anything unless it’s what I deserve.

Bodybuilding might seem like a glorified beauty contest, but it’s more than that. You can purchase beauty with money, like celebrities go to plastic surgeon’s, but you can’t purchase muscle with money. Muscle is earned.
