“I started bodybuilding back when I was 18. I was always the smaller kid in my grad and although I was active and athletic I fought my genetics on a constant basis to put on some muscle mass. I started expanding my knowledge in diet, nutrition and training which eventually brought me to where I am today. It’s been almost 9 years now and I can say I have learned a lot, not just about bodybuilding but also myself. The discipline and dedication I fell in love with has flowed through to many aspects of my life and made me a very goal orientated person. Set goals, go out and conquer them, come home and set more goals. Life is always about raising the bar and accomplishing whatever you set your mind too.” – Stefan Lyren, Bodybuilder, Gorilla Wear Canada athlete.
