From anecdotal experience this group is about 70% entrepreneur or side-hustler (which is awesome). Use this as a thread to shamelessly say who you are( why you do, and the mission you are on. Your work and mission are a huge part of who you are and the path of freedom and growth you are on. Share and discuss in this category!

Hey guys! I wanted to post my story here. In June 2024 I weighed in at 350lb and as of 11/25/25 I am weighing 215lb. I am not done, by no means! A couple of months ago I recruited my two trainers to train for a Spartan OCR. I plan on running the Sprint. My body has been limiting me on movement and has created a few pain points. BTW, I am 63yo. I look forward to this protocol changing the trajectory of my training for the better. I welcome any pointers to help me. I want to get back to doing a full middle split like I did in my 30s.

The Start of my journey towards a balanced life, a healthier and more fit body, and Real Longstanding Change. My name is Andrew Aspinall, and I am currently 46 years of age. I used to be active and exercise regularly. My Moto transportation was a bicycle and my fitness choice was strength training in the gym. Now, that was more than a decade ago. Having lived these past 10+ years without being active, outside of jobs that require me to do so, and no true fitness goals…. I have gained body fat and lost the motivation to be healthy and live a balanced life. I’ve come to the point in my life where I’m experiencing pain in areas of my body I’m not used to; in my right shoulder I feel pain when I tried to wash my upper back with a shower sponge, going over and behind my left trap, in my left heel there’s almost constant pain when I walk, pain in my left tricep when I try to stretch it, & finally, tightness in my lower back when I wake up in the morning. Also, I’ve forgotten what it’s like to enjoy working out and exercising. Coming from a man who used to be passionate about exercise and nutrition, and now almost 0, I’m facing the man in the mirror, and I’m scared. I don’t like what I see, and I certainly don’t like what I feel. This is got to change, and my self-respect has got to be redeemed. I know I have it in me to make the change, since I had it in me to stay consistently inactive these past 10+ years. I look forward to going on this journey with all of you guys here at Art of Mobility Live, & working my way back to a place where I can love myself, respect myself, and be the best version version of myself, up-to-date. Talk to you later. Andrew Aspinall
