"I started off with just gym videos and some weight loss videos. Now, I'm trying to motivate people.
"I had a hard life. My father left my mother and me before I was born. My stepfather was an alcoholic and it was tough.
"My mother was 19 when she had me, so it was never really easy. I moved out of the house because there were too many problems. It was a really hard time for me,” he added.
