Yes. I have actually begun training for American Ninja warrior. For those of who you who aren't familiar with it, it's an obstacle course competition that appears on TV. Check out their site here: http://www.nbc.com/american-ninja-warrior.
I first heard about ANW back in early 2015 from a friend of mine in my acting class at Actor's Arsenal in Wilmington, NC - http://www.actorsarsenal.com/. I started watching the show last year. Fast forward to 2016 and me needing to lose much needed weight, I decided to start training for ANW and obstacle course competition in general. I even attended a local competition here in NC and got to meet several well known Ninjas including Mike Cook, Dougie Fresh, Jesse Graff, Grant McCartney and my Ninja coach Chuck Mammay (The Chuckster). Anyway, as my training began to progress, I started training more for obstacle course specific goals. Then I started training with Chuck and he has been a huge help so far! Below are some pics and a video of me training. I figured why not share about. I've been posting on my Facebook page and keeping friends and followers in the loop on what I've been calling my "Fat to Fit" journey... Soon, I will be creating a new page altogether on this website so everyone can follow my journey. Sure, I have aspirations of being the next American Ninja Warrior. But, if I fall short and at least motivate some folks along the way, that would be awesome too!! Peace and blessings!
