My name is Arvin Reza Ghamami, a NASM-Certified Personal trainer, nutritionist, and avid fitness advocate. I started my lifting journey half a decade ago in high school when I decided to get stronger for wrestling. I then transitioned into powerlifting, hitting the 1000 club exactly one year after I started with a 405 lb deadlift, 360 squat, and 235 bench at 175 pounds. When I first began, I had no idea I could achieve such strength in such little time. However, this wasn’t without merit. I spent all my free time scouring YouTube, watching names like Ben Pollack, Shane Hunt, and Jamal Browner trying to absorb their lifting technique, knowledge, and workout methods. Later down the road, influencers like Jeremy Buendia and Chris Bumstead got me into the sport of bodybuilding which I am still pursuing to this day.

Even if your goals aren’t lifting massive weight or getting yoked, I still got you. After graduating high school, I decided to let my passion for fitness take me on a journey that I am still following to this day. To me, fitness is an unavoidable part of life that will open more doors than you can count. Without the struggle, and without the obstacles that are thrown at you, one will not be able to appreciate what life truly has to offer.
