Show notes
Louie Olivas grew up his whole life being pretty athletic, but he was always among the smallest, weakest guys on the field. He always wanted to be strong and have a six-pack. He always wanted to feel good about taking his shirt off. He never saw a clear path to achieve this until he went through his own personal transformation in his early 20s. This Is what got him into coaching. Helping others create their own transformation brings him so much fulfilment. He knows how good It feels to create a better version of yourself through fitness. He wouldn't be the man he is today without It. He recently became a father to a beautiful little girl, Syrena.

Quotes:
"That was like my physique for most of my life up until like my 20s, until my early 20s. Like, just very skinny, very self-conscious about my body image and I guess not in the typical way of, you know, people that are overweight maybe and they, you know, Don't like to, they don't like how they look in the mirror because of, you know, that reason it, I feel like it's the same thing just on the opposite side of the spectrum, basically like just skin and bones basically."
"I was just kind of winging it and that maybe probably contributed to it. And then even after like, so the picture was 17, I had tried again, like for three years. To go to the gym, like try to lift weights, try to get stronger and everything. And same thing, like I would stop after like a month or two weeks or whatever. So there's a very inconsistent, right. But I still wanted to do it. Like, I just couldn't figure out how. "
