Inspiring Dreams To Become A Reality
My Journey started back in February 2017. I started 258lbs at 38.4% body fat, barely any muscle, overweight, insecure, and very shy. My name is Asher Gomez and on April 7th 2018 my dream became a reality. I challenged myself to step on stage at 151lbs 4% body fat and compete in my first ever INBA Physique Competition. I took 3rd in novice and 2nd in open.
It all started when I was getting made fun of and being called fat, unattractive, and bullied for being overweight by people who I thought were friends in high school. Even one of my baseball coaches told me if I wanted to play baseball and go further with it I would have to lose some weight. I got injured my freshman year and playing over the years I didn’t think I was putting on as much weight as I apparently did. After graduating years go by and we are in January 2017. I came across some pictures and I realized what the bullies were talking about so I took action. My journey began. I’ve trained my body and pushed my boundaries, dieted harder than I every have, pushed myself to the point where I would get up after a set and get light head and nearly fall. Now people look to me for help. I became the motivation when they needed the push. I learned my roll and my roll I strongly believe is to inspire! Inspire others that need that push and have been told they couldn’t. Never judge the ones that were pushed down and away from others, because we strive and empower others to be better. We Rep our last max. Now you know my story. Inspire and anchor down.
