When I was 17 I was a sad, emo, heart-broken teen ... and I told my Ma I wanted to die. My parents took me to a psychologist and he told me to start exercising ... so I did. That was my start in fitness.

I’ve never drawn much inspiration from someone outside myself, but I have to admit I get a lot of it from my twin boys, Max and Jack.

Usually I just cheat on my fitness with alcohol. It doesn’t help me physically, so technically it’s a cheat but ... getting drunk isn’t cheating on my life or happiness.

Friends ... and if you don’t like Friends just go ahead and unfollow me because I don’t like you anyway.

Never get too happy with yourself. There’s always more that you can accomplish ... always new and different ways you can grow. I guess I’ve learned that over the years. Don’t beat yourself up, but don’t sit around feeling too happy for yourself either. Always be striving for SOMETHING, otherwise, what’s the point of all this?

I don’t think I’ve achieved anything I’m truly proud of yet. I’ve done some cool shit, for sure ... and I’m happy about that. I haven't done anything impressive enough yet to genuinely feel ... proud. That said, I am happily on my way.

Truthfully, I don’t know ... and I don’t try to know. Knowing doesn’t make a difference. For one reason or another, I seem to be ... Well, I AM a person with drive. All I know is I enjoy pushing myself physically and mentally ... so I do that. And when I don’t, I am unhappy.

I don’t know. It’s an interesting question. “Changed” is where it’s getting me. I don’t know that my life has changed in a way the question implies. All I’ll say is, I’m so fucking grateful for having met all the men and women who work for and run the company. It’s truly a blessing. 1st Phorm has always been good to me! As a lifelong fitness enthusiast and athlete, it's a dream to become sponsored. I couldn’t imagine myself representing any other company ... I honestly couldn’t. Thanks 1P. I love all of you!
