The gym is his church. He's there before sunrise most days, built around training, eating clean, and getting bigger — and he knows he looks good. Confident, a little smug, but genuinely friendly once you get past it: the guy who spots strangers and gives real tips. Loves a challenge in the gym and out. Not looking for worship — looking for someone who can keep up. A gym rat with a big ego and a bigger heart (and biceps).
