“I wouldn’t say [exercise] comes naturally. Some people just grew up playing sports, so no one is better than anyone else in sports;it’s just about where you were born and what you took interest in when you were younger. My most recent record would probably be 175 on bench [press]. It was maybe two weeks ago, and at the time, I took a huge break from working out in general. Before those two weeks, I went from 150 to 175. I think rest days are a big part of exercise in general. To be honest, my biggest motivation is being better than everyone else. I want to look and feel good while working hard, so I never feel lesser than anyone else. I have this mindset where if I’m not getting myself motivated today, someone else will be more motivated and more successful. Whenever I can’t reach a goal, I just look at old photos of myself—basically when I was just at my lowest points in life, and think of how far I’ve come.”
