Fitness & Entrepreneurial Spirit

[James]

Good afternoon Startup Network users!

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share a bit of my journey with you. Last August, I encountered a significant challenge when I was involved in a motorcycle accident. It's been a tough road to recovery, and I still face a lot of pain, but I'm determined to stay afloat.

Before the accident, my life was quite different. I was dedicated to my fitness routine, exercising 3-4 times a week, putting in hours each session, and training in strongman competitions with my brother. The accident threw a curveball my way, changing everything.

The gym, and particularly strongman training, played a crucial role in transforming my life. It gave me a new sense of purpose, focus, and determination. Through the challenges, I found a level of difficulty that pushed me, a level of care for my well-being, and most importantly, a drive to overcome obstacles. I managed to shed over 5 stone, and life took a turn for the better.

Despite the ongoing pain and challenges, I am eagerly looking forward to next year. Once my injuries heal, I can't wait to kickstart the next chapter of my fitness journey. Here's to new beginnings and the resilience that the gym has instilled in me!

No emojis, just genuine gratitude for the strength that fitness has brought into my life. This is a post for my fitness section on Startup Networks.

Attached is an image of me first putting 80kg above my head with axel press, truly was so excited about this - and a great goal!
