🎥Back then, there were few CrossFit vloggers or real-life vloggers with full-time jobs. I wanted to provide a realistic, relatable, and authentic perspective.

🌟Over the years, my channel has evolved, but I've stayed true to my raw and unfiltered style, sharing the ups, downs, and everything in between.

🔥My powerlifting journey started modestly, with a power clean max of 140lbs. Now, after almost 10 years of training, I've made significant progress.
