At 38, he was 265lbs, eating unhealthy, smoking nearly a pack of cigarettes a day, and without understanding that the lifestyle outside of the public eye was slowly deteriorating and chipping away at a thriving life.

But it was also at 38 that “the great awakening” began. Looking inwardly he reflected on responsibility, accountability, and mostly the possibility of hope.

Byron began to show up. Not just for others but for himself by putting his wisdom and discipline to the test and thus began his Fitness Journey.

If you ask him how he did it, he’ll simply reply:

“I just showed up”
