My Journey
The Beginning
2017- I was very skinny and felt very weak, chance had it that my brother wanted to buy some weights, so I chipped in. Excited that I was about to change for the better. I started out doing 10 minutes every other day and to be honest I wasn’t too thrilled. Eventually, I increased the duration after two weeks and I started looking forward to it, although I wasn’t training for strength but size. On the other hand, my brother got burnt out training far too much from the very get-go. I was 110lbs at that time.
2018- I was still doing my vegetarian diet for almost a year now, as I had a lot of acne and refused to eat anything with sugar. As a result, gaining weight wasn’t easy, it also didn’t help that I was waking up at 3 a.m. on the weekdays. My parents were worried but I thought if I was to be successful I had to wake up early and grind like the Rock (Dwayne Johnson) and other influencers I looked up to at that time. I thought I made massive progress and gains but a couple of months later I saw a picture of myself at a beach and that’s when it struck me, that’s me. I could see my ribs and my chest bone this horrified me, it was a hard reality check to accept. I did make progress however but I knew I had to make more. I was 125lbs.
2019- I began eating meat and more food in general to bulk up. I gained a significant amount of weight and I felt a lot more secure with my body. Although the weight I did gain wasn’t all muscle, I didn’t care, I thought at least I was bigger. I was enthralled to train anytime I could which was almost every day. I was 155lbs
The Middle
2020- I was bigger and people started noticing and it felt good but it always bugged me that I spent a lot of time in the gym, most days 1 1/2 – 2 sometimes even 3 hours! It is no surprise I got burnt out creatively later on in my workout planning. I became complacent at one point with one workout split with some variation that soon became stagnated. At this point, school was quite an obstacle fitting my workouts in the day it became a chore. I was 165lbs.
2021- I kept with my split workout (Chest, back,/shoulders, arms/ legs, calves, and abs every workout) which was about 6 days a week and still improving slightly. At this point, I improved my bench press which I looked forward to each week at the school’s weight room. I was 16 years old and I could bench press 265lbs for 1 repetition. Later on in that year I could bench 285lbs for one rep and weighed 174 lbs. But in the summer I couldn’t wake up early and train like I did because I had work that summer. I ended up telling myself if I couldn’t get a long workout in I thought what was the point? The problem was I thought the quality was related to duration. As a result, I didn’t eat as much and I lost some weight. I went down to 166lbs.
2022- I was out of school that July and not much had changed in my training besides my size which I was back to 170lbs again. Around November I was not satisfied with my body. Chance happens that a video clip of Mike Mentzer talking about intensity and how much time he spent in the gym, 30 minutes 4 times a week. That was the shift in my paradigm, as it was the same time I was watching Kinobody and decided to start his 6-week program in December. I was 173lbs.
And Now
2023- With Kinobodys program my time in the gym was around 45 minutes to 1 hour. I had a sensational pump but I wanted it to be shorter of a workout and fewer days in the gym. So near the midway of the program, I adjusted the sets to just 1 all-out set. Now I was getting to that 30-minute mark I wanted. After that, I took what I learned and changed my workout program every 4 weeks to 6 weeks. I started recording and tracking my progress which was a nuance to me and I was making personal records from each session. My enthusiasm was burning ever so more, with my workouts only taking around 30- 20 minutes! Now I’m only training every 1-2 times a week. Just to be clear and transparent when I switched my workouts to be more strength, my shoulders have gotten more fuller, and my body is in similar if not better condition to when I was constantly working out. So in a nutshell, I’m training less and getting similar if not better results with H.I.T. I am currently around 168lbs.
