I thank God everyday that I have my life back. There was a time when I walked around hurt, broken and confused. I needed someone to save me from what I was going through. Fitness became a means for me to control the confusion in my life. Most people turn to comfort food. I didn’t want to do that because I knew that it would take me down a path that I didn’t want to go in. Every time that I went to the gym I gained some resemblance of the former me that I wanted back. It was as if God gave me clarity during those workouts.

I know how it feels to be stuck and confused but don’t take it out on your body. When the turmoil is over you don’t want to have a body that you don’t recognize. You don’t want to go to the mirror and say what happened to me. God will give you peace during the storm. Control what you do to your body during the storm and protect your body.
