Today we’d like to introduce you to Reuben Brooks.
Reuben, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
My fitness journey started off with a bet between myself and a group of friends to see who could get a 6-pack before a beach vacation.
Back then, I faced a few problems: I wasn’t genetically gifted and I loved (still love) food. I failed dozens of dieting attempts. And, I struggled with a binge eating disorder. Challenging myself to this bet proved to be one of the hardest, but most rewarding things I’ve ever done.
The bet was where I started, but it’s not who I am today.
Currently, I’m an Online Fitness Coach, private fitness trainer and men’s physique bodybuilding competitor.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The biggest obstacle I overcame was developing a healthier relationship with food. I wasn’t taught proper nutrition etiquette or principles of nutrition. I had to unlearn and relearn. Once I understood how food works and how to eat for my body type, I mastered the process. Since I’ve developed a unique strategy that allows my clients to enjoy life without giving up their favorite foods.
