Thank you to everyone who reached out through messages, calls, and check-ins. I truly felt your care and support.

May 3rd, 2026 was the darkest day of my eight-year journey as a professional physique athlete.
This was supposed to be the day I stepped onto the IFBB National stage to pursue a dream I have worked toward for years.
For me, IFBB has always been the ultimate goal, and competing at Nationals is something deeply meaningful and irreplaceable.

But around 6am that morning, I fainted due to low blood pressure and fell face-first onto the ground, losing consciousness for at least three minutes.
When I woke up, I was bleeding heavily from my forehead, my lips were badly injured, and four of my upper teeth were damaged.
With only two hours left before the show, I had no choice but to withdraw.

Physical injuries will heal with time, but the disappointment will take longer to process.

Four years of preparation came to an abrupt pause in a single moment.
Please allow me to step away from social media for a while to focus on my recovery, both physically and mentally.

As for what’s next, I don’t have all the answers yet.
But right now, I choose to put my health, my family, my friends, and my career first.

Lastly, thank you to my girlfriends, my coach, and all my friends for your support.
When I’m ready, I will come back stronger, healthier, and brighter.

Sad story…. 4hours before the show and I have to quit my show

Let’s go 84 😉

Built over three years. It isn’t about the medals but what makes me feel happier. Appreciate my coach and teammates.

two days out! Carbs up from today! Let’s enjoy the journey together
