Do you have a transformation story? What is it? “My own personal transformation story – I was a sophomore in college weighing around 220 pounds with little to no muscle. I was lacking in every aspect of life, struggling with school, my appearance, and overall health. I knew I needed to change my life for the better. I started working out again and pushed myself every day and I started to see results and fell in love with the process. I kept seeing results and then I plateaued and was stuck. I knew I needed to change my eating habits and that was the hardest part for me. Once I changed my eating habits I started seeing more results and haven’t stopped since. So I’ve consistently been working out for four years straight and am finally content with my results and how I’ve progressed over the years.”
