"I stay motivated by looking forward to the improvements that I will be making. Also inspiring those around me gives me a great deal of motivation..."

"I had always been into sports however training was a totally different sport on its own. I started lifting weights here and there at the age of 17, I didn’t know too much about it and I certainly did not know a lot about anatomy, physiology, nutrition and..." - Alexandre M. Carneiro
