From Skinny & Insecure to Strong & Confident: My Own Transformation Journey

27d ago in OTHERS

Growing up, I was always the skinniest guy in the room. I started at 50 kg (about 110 lbs) with almost no muscle. That feeling of being overlooked, not being taken seriously, and even a bit invisible was tough to shake.

So, I started working out at home, hitting push-ups and whatever calisthenics I could manage, determined to change.

Over the years, I went all in. From training with bodyweight exercises to eventually bulking up in the gym, I pushed myself to lift heavier, eat cleaner, and stay consistent no matter what.

Today, I've added almost double the muscle and even built my bench press up from a humble 75 kg to a solid 105 kg. That journey from skinny to strong wasn’t just about my physique, though—it’s about confidence and self-respect.

The gym taught me resilience, patience, and the power of showing up every day to work on myself. It’s an investment in who you’re becoming.
