This dude us amazing @_grindhardprayharder_ - I’m proud of you. . I know it was a long road. I know a lot of people discredit what you had to go through as being challenging. I know that you wondered if any of the work you do and dedication you put in will ever mean anything. I’m happy to tell you it does. . God gave you a journey to go on that He didn’t call anyone else to besides you. Bodybuilding shows, Physique shows, fitness shows, might not be one of yours and I can’t say its mine either. It’s just a platform I can use to encourage and motivate those on the same journey—getting in shape, losing weight, living healthier. . I’ve dealt with so much guilt over the years. I hated myself for the times I chose to gym and diet, instead of hanging out with the people I love over the years. But those that loved me, loved me whether I was overweight or in shape. . So I want to tell you the same. I love you as you are for who you are. I would never want you to change and lose yourself, trying to better yourself but forgetting the heart that you have for the person you’ve become. The more that people love you and your heart, the more that the physical appearance doesn’t matter. . But I love you enough to support you if you don’t want make the decision to live healthier. To get in shape. To compete. I love you enough to stand by your side in every journey you’re going through, because I know how hard it is doing it alone. I know that you can do it but I would never want you to feel like you have to. . Thank you everyone for your love and support. I hope that the last years of my journey will motivate you and encourage to commit to grinding for yours. Love you. . #GrindHardPrayHarder #TeamCutz #cnpperformance #MyStrengthIsInTheLord #bodybuilding #Versagripps #fitlife #fattofit #obesetoabeast #transformationfitnation #instagramfitness #weightloss #fitforlife #nwchampionships @northwestchampionships https://www.instagram.com/p/BqBdm3KnNOm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18vbpxmjjymeh

🏆Honorary Ambassador of the Year🏆 @deenomite The 2nd Honorary Ambassador Award goes to Dean Balabis of #TeamCutz. If there's anyone worthy of being an honorary ambassador, it's Dean. Look up "SUPPORTIVE" in the dictionary and you might just see his image there. He has given his support to Muscle League on numerous levels and never asked for anything in return. He's never acted entitled or felt like anyone owes him anything. He's never held out his hands begging for any handouts. When he gives, he does it proudly and void of any conditions. He's one of few people that actually contributed a donation to our Olympia Indiegogo campaign. As soon as we put our shirts and tanks on sale, he was one of the first few orders that came in! That, ladies and gentlemen, is how you show support to something you believe in. And in all his giving, he gets it back by being the incredibly successful athlete that he is. Like Jake, I had the pleasure of watching him turn pro at USAs and was ecstatic when he won the Sacramento Pro to qualify for the 2015 Olympia just a couple of months later! Dean deserves every accolade he earns and then some. Congratulations, Dean Balabis... 2014 Muscle League Honorary Ambassador of the Year!! #MuscleLeagueAwards (at 🏆2014 Muscle League Awards🏆)

My man Paul back at it. @_grindhardprayharder_ - . Back to the goal. . Back to the diet. . Back in Seattle. . Back to the Grind. _ Some of the most important breaks needed are the ones when you get away from your environment for a moment. . I didn’t stop working out but I prioritized everyone and everything else other than just chipping at the tree. . Just because we work more and work harder, doesn’t necessarily mean we’re accomplishing more. If we don’t take a break once in a while, something eventually will; I pray to God that it’s not us or the relationships we love, that do. . #GrindHardPrayHarder #TeamCutz #CNPPerformance #versagripps #grow #growthmindset https://www.instagram.com/p/BqumFhWHtfl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6no3uegji6m3

Believe in your self it's not that hard. @_grindhardprayharder_ - The biggest win is knowing that you tried and keep trying. It didn’t happen when you wanted it to happen. It didn’t happen how you expected. You didn’t fail because you didn’t win, you win each time you don’t choose to give up. . People never know how hard you work. People will underestimate how hard you work. People will doubt you and count all your hard work as luck, supplements, photo shop, or compare it to someone’s they’ve seen. . It doesn’t matter what people think. It doesn’t matter what people see. It doesn’t matter that you’re not their best. What matters is what you see, what you know, and that you are your best. . Thank you for not giving up. Let’s keep going. #GrindHardPrayHarder . #TeamCutz #cnpperformance #bodybuilding #fattofit #weightloss #nevergiveup #motivation #fitness #instagramfitness #fitnessmotivation #beforeandafter https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp2FTxynlQL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1drkiomawnx1y

My boy Paul kicking ass, you look awesome. Regrann from @_grindhardprayharder_ - _ 4 weeks out today _ I can confidently say I’ve given my best E V E R Y S I N G L E D A Y. And I’m only going to get better. _ Going into this prep, I didn’t care about competing against anyone other than myself (I never cared about competing against anyone other than myself honestly) I expressed every bit of desire to be the best I can and bring the best I can, to complete the last 10 years of my fitness journey from being overweight, obese, sedentary, and never working out at 320 pounds to my coach @_cutz_ _ “Every coach has had a coach. Every trainer has had a trainer. But an eye has to do with experience and the persons own views.” - Ariel Alberto (cutz) _ In these years of training and studying and learning and applying, it is always important to be most smart about who you are learning, coached, and trained by. . Second to that is, before you decide to go under any training and coaching, YOU HAVE TO PUT ASIDE YOUR BIAS AND WHAT YOU KNOW SO YOU CAN LEARN. . Last and most important: _ T R U S T Y O U R C O A C H & T R U S T T H E P R O C E S S. . The biggest learning curve is not allowing yourself to learn. Everyday is something new for us to learn, everyday is a new day to trust that we will grind as hard as we can to get to where we want, what we want, who we want—this requires trust. . #GrindHardPrayHarder . #CNPPERFORMANCEATHLETE #TEAMCUTZ #VERSAGRIPPS #POWERPERFORMANCEPRODUCTS #HUMPDAYMOTIVATION #MOTIVATION #FITNESS #LIFESTYLE #WEIGHTLOSS #NEVERGIVEUP #FATTOFIT #BODYBUILDING #FOREVERFIT #MYSTRENGTHISINTHELORD #STAYHUMBLE #VANITY #IDENTITY

The Man Paul. **Long Post But Read If You Can** I hope this collage encourages you. Many message me and ask me what i did in the beginning and how they should begin their journey. What to do, how to do it? The best advice I can ever give you is embracing the lifestyle change. It's not a temporary diet,  it's not a temporary bulk and cut season, it's not a micro, meso, macro cycle periodization; it is a lifestyle. Through this lifestyle you will encounter many many many seasons of trial and error. In this lifestyle you will be challenged by many doubts, pain, and discouragement; you conquer this by conquering your old self to be your new self. You change the way you think so you can change and become the person you want to be. (Romans 12:1-8) The physical changes we see are cool but the person inside you that continues to develop and mature in life, through life, is beyond anything we can physically change. This is the challenge and this is the hardest part of any journey. If you grasp this, you can build your life and your body on a firm foundation that will not falter. As for history & future fitness goals: 17 - i was 320 pounds (heaviest was 330) 22 - i was 165 pounds (lightest I've ever been and met my mentor and coach @mohookups and the best protein supplement company @cnpperformance) 23 - i stepped on stage at 170 pounds (self coached and lesson learned) 26 - I'm at 185 in the picture 27 - I'm due for another transformation and to beat my last show conditioning and I'm confident that i will. (decade of dedication to transformation) Grind Hard Pray Harder.. It's grind time. #GrindHardPrayHarder #MyStrengthIsInTheLord  #LiveByFaithLiftByFaith #CNPPERFORMANCE #CNPPERFORMANCEATHLETE #cutzfitness #teamcutz #powerperformanceproducts #shieldsofstrength #versagripps #Fitexpo #Npc #musclemania #wbff #teamuniverse #Ironmannpc #fitforlife #transformation #beforeandafter #igweightloss #lifestyle #foreverfit #weightloss #fitjourney #buildmuscleburnfat  #FitnessDevotion

Transformation is not just in the body but in the mind. To close you get to you goals the more you believe in your self. @_grindhardprayharder_ - In order for man to succeed in life, God provided him with two means, education and physical activity. Not separately, one for the soul and the other for the body, but for the two together. With these two means, man can attain perfection _ -Plato . . People will always have something to say to you. Over the years, people told me that I was dieting wrong, training wrong, I would lose a bunch of weight and have loose skin, etc. . I didn’t listen to them. I just kept going and kept learning along the way. . . I’m still going and when I’m done it’ll only be because there is something better ahead. . #GrindHardPrayHarder #cnpperformance #TeamCutz #Fitlife #Instagramfitness #weightlosstransformation #fattofit #fitlife #bodybuilding #beforeandafter #trainandtransform #weightlossjourney #3dmj #simplyshredded #aesthetics https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn6OPqxHZYr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2olh6edudsb5

My man Paul doing some cable work. @_grindhardprayharder_ - Last set for Todays chest session. . . A lot of things have been going on and stress has been at an all time high lately. But stress is stress, no point in stressing about it 🙄🤣😂. . . Minor setbacks but some steps back help to see the bigger picture. I didn’t lose focus of the goal, I just had to refocus. . . #GrindHardPrayHarder #TeamCutz #cnpperformance @cnpperformance https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn31UHtH0JR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4y0q257avodw
