What makes you, you?

I love a challenge and doing something with my hands. I’m a hard worker. I love what I do. Sometimes I struggle to take time for myself outside of my work because I’m so tired and just want to relax at home. But I have a great great friends around me that pull me out. I’m extremely competitive in anything I do so I enjoy being pushed in any way through my life. My mom pushed me to always be the best that I could.

I would like to hit a muscle up, front squat 300 and complete a handstand walk.

The constant change of the programming which also makes it not boring.
