đHappy Friday Fit Folksđ
This photo was taken about a year ago when I was hovering around 201lbs.
For the past 5 months, Iâve bulked and kept my weight around 215.
Curious to see what Iâll look like when I cut back downđ„

đ„©Bulk Check in đ„©
Iâm Currently at 217lbs for my morning weight. This is the heaviest I have ever weighed, and my goal is to stay around 210-220 for the next few months as I focus on improving my compound lifts!
When bulking, itâs important to make sure youâre still getting enough protein and not letting your calories creep up too quickly. Ideally, you are tracking your nutrition and putting yourself in a modest calories surplus to ensure youâre not gaining a lot of fat.
If you have any questions about diet/nutrition or want to work with me to hit your fitness goal, shoot me a message.
Happy Valentineâs Day everyone!

đ„Throw back Thursdayđ„
On the left is a photo from highschool, before I stepped foot in a gym. I weight between 150-160lbs.
On the right is a more recent picture, after 8 years of consistent training, where Iâm sitting at about 202lbs.
These are the 3 biggest tips I have if you want to transform your body yourself!
1. Learn how to effectively train and eat: progressing with compound exercise, executing workouts with safe form, and making sure your nutrition aligns with your goals will ensure that youâre not spinning your wheels when youâre investing in your health!
2. Stay consistent: training to see change in your body is a marathon, not a sprint, especially if you want to keep your progress long term. Someone doing a few workouts each week over long periods of time will always see better progress than the person who chooses to take on too much too soon and burn out within the first few months of training
3. Make sure youâre having fun! Set goals for yourself, bring some friends to join you during your workouts, and take gym selfies when you are feeling yourself! Time flies when youâre having fun, so if youâre having fun, before you know it, youâll be seeing your own body transform too!
If youâre looking for workout/nutrition guidance for your own transformation, shoot me a DM!
Happy Thursday Everyone!!

Smiling because Iâm going on a bulk during cookie season đȘâïžđ
There are two ways to bulk:
1. Dirty Bulk: consuming a very high surplus of calories (+500) to gain weight quickly. This approach typically doesnât involve tracking and usually involves putting on excess fat while youâre gaining muscle
2. Clean bulk: eating a modest calorie surplus (250-500) to gain weight at a slower pace. This typically involves tracking your nutrition so that you keep fat gain to a minimum.
Both strategies have pros and cons, and should be implemented depending on factors like how long you have been training for, your experience with dieting back down, how much body fat you are currently holding, etc.
If youâre looking to gain muscle/ tone up your fame and want a structured approach to reach your goal, hit me up!

Have an awesome day everyone!đ„đ„đ„

Happy đȘ Fit Fam!
Just checking in with some stats from this morning:
Weight-200.2lbs
Arms-18in
Waist-31in
Sometimes folks get too hung up on the number on the scale, when they are building muscle and losing weight. Taking measurements is an important tool we can use to measure meaningful progress. Donât forget to do your check ins to stay on track!

+90lbs x 7 Weighted Pull Ups
Hitting some weighted pull ups today for my heavy compound lift. This isnât a volume PR for me, but I have never hit this weight for 7 reps at my current weight before.
If youâre trying to get better at pull ups, here are some tips that can help clean up your form:
1. Think about driving your elbows towards the floor: sometimes I see folks trying to do pull ups by pulling down with their hands instead of their elbows which can cause your biceps, a small muscle, to do more work than they should. Leading every pull with your elbows get your lats, a much larger muscle, to do more of the work in this exercise which is what you want if you want to get strong in this exercise
2. Think about bringing your sternum (right below your lower chest) to the bar: this adjustment should get your torso into a more leaned back position, which once again helps us engage our lats better in the pull up
Try these tips out next time you hit pull ups and let me know how they feel! Have an awesome Monday Everyone!

đ„495lbs x 11 Hip Thrust PRđ„
This is my favorite variation of a free weight hip thrust. Instead of having my back up against a box, I have my shoulder blades on the floor to mimic a glute bridge movement. I find this variation much easier to get into position with, and if you pause for a second at the top, your glutes will really start burning!
Give this a shot next time you hit a lower body day and let me know how you like itđ„
