By all accounts the outlook wasn’t exactly all positive in my early days. Told that you wouldn’t run and have great challenges doesn’t leave you bouncing for joy.
Often thoughts of joining a gym & being able to ‘put on some muscle’ up to my early 20’s, were overshadowed by doubt from the ever present mindset of “I’m not built for that am I?”
THEN, the turn in that latter question into “or was I?” REALLY took hold when asking another – “WHAT IF”….
It’s a powerful question in itself. Full of curiosity and possibility. This creates a search for answers and helps to carve your individual path – on large and small avenues.
It does therefore, install a rather large dose of determination despite those earlier projections.
In the fitness world, there are many goals, objectives, reasons to keep pushing toward your target, underpinned by “what if”. what if it drives me, what if I could change that to make this work. What if I could use this that way?
An open mind has led to so many amazing opportunities in the world of mixed disability bodybuilding and it started with “What if?
And the answer is I AM MADE FOR THIS!!
