Photo by: Marcel Cristocea

How do you  feel as a winner of a prestigious worldwide competition with 54% of 82,381 votes  coming from everywhere? A/: I’m very happy. I was informed on December 31st when I was in Cali-Colombia with my family.  We all celebrated it together.  

I’m grateful with all the people who voted for me.   It was great to see so many people supporting me.  I won, they won,  at the end we all won because we believe that fitness is more than muscles and exercises. It’s also about Mental health, social  inclusion, diversity, emotions etc. Priceless! Thank you very much.

What your blog has that made  you be the winner? A/:  My blog is different. It shows very well  myself, my values in a “fresh” way. It’s not individualistic.  I go beyond muscles and exercises. I respect the work my colleagues do with blogs focused on exercises or on selfies showing their muscles. We need that approach too. But, I think people are saturated  and lost with a huge amount of images and videos every time they look at their phones. I wanted to do a blog that can promote and inspire people to have a balance in all aspects of their lives. I invite people to think of others, their communities, animals and everything is on this planet. Fitness is holistic. It’s not  only about the shape.

You have a great, great body and you are a very good looking person. Did it help you to win? A/: Thank you very much for your generous words. I won because people identified themselves with my values and they wanted to support the message.  I definitely believe  that beauty is subjective.  All human beings have beauty  and it starts from the deepest part of each of us. I’d prefer to invite  people to look for every person’s beauty especially  what they have inside. I’m sure you will always find something beautiful.

I’ve been training myself for a long time. Fitness is part of my lifestyle. I do what I preach. It’s important for me to be coherent, consistent and honest with myself and others. Aesthetics  results and the shape come  after you have healthy habits with your body and mind.

Are you always a winner? A/: No.  Nobody wants to experience failures. However, I’m glad I had some in my life. You always learn from each experience.

Each failure helped me to be stronger, more human, destroy prejudices,   better understand others and to get to know myself better. Believe me there is always something good in the failures even if it’s important challenge yourself and do your best to be a winner. In the failure you can be a winner and as a winner you can be a real failure.

All the other bloggers who were nominated in this category are amazing and I admire them too.

I’m always humble when I win and proud  of myself keeping my head up when I am a failure and loose a competition.

Photo by: Marcel Cristocea

What is your favorite quote as a winner? A/: Be humble when you win and be proud when you lose.

What is your most important achievement in the fitness field? A/:  To motivate and inspire a huge variety of people: with disabilities,  children, older adults,  people with mental health challenges and cultures.  Everyone should have access to Fitness.

Photo by: Marcel Cristocea

What are the parts of your body that you hate and love the most? A/: I don’t really feel “hate “ or “love” for any part of my body.  I “accept” in a certain way the body that life has given to me.  At the same time I’m very aware that It’s essential to challenge myself, get out of my confort zone and improve my body everyday with healthy nutrition, exercises and mind work.  It has to be a life project towards feeling confortable with yourself (Body and mind).

Do you think that being a color person is an advantage or disadvantage in the fitness and fashion world? A/: It depends on the context and on the attitude of the color person. I know  society needs to evolve about this aspect and in general about diversity.   It hasn’t been a disadvantage for me. I always work hard and give  absolutely all at 100% to achieve my goals and give a good quality of work.  

What part of your fitness life marked  the most? A/:  Definitely the beginning when I was a teenager.  I was a sport teenager. But with small muscles. I’ve never used  steroids or medication to achieve my fitness goals.  So, it took me years of hard work to be in a good shape according to the standards  of the fitness Industry.

You  have an admirable intellectual background: you went to Yale University, Concordia University and Javeriana University. You’re a  Psychiatry Clinical  Research Coordinator for a research center of Montreal University in Canada during the day. In the evenings you’re working on fitness teaching courses, training people and mentoring other coaches. How do you keep a balance in your life? A/:  Thank you very much.  I love and enjoy working on both fields. They complement each other. The intellectual growth is key in my life. I think it should be for every human being.

I plan my agenda in a way I make sure I book some time for my work, my friends, my family, my community, my intellectual growth and for myself(meditation, training etc.). I try to cover everything that is essential.

What’s the most common  training question people ask you? A/:   How to get a six-pack?

What is next  after  being the winner? A/:  I’ll continue working hard for and with people to encourage them to have  a healthy lifestyle.  I hope many others will join me.  I also hope new opportunities will come to continue doing what I like and have a bigger impact on a long term bases.

Would you like to be the Ambassador, work for a mark and cause? A/:  Yes. I’d be very happy to  work for a cause, do collaborations with a mark, photographers, other bloggers, influencers, artists, websites etc.  

What’s the question we should have asked you  and we haven’t? A/: Who inspires you the most?.

...Who inspires the best Fitness blogger of 2018? A/: Someone who created a fitness program with deep values such as social inclusion, empowering, Mental Health, considering the emotions of each person etc. He also  integrated “entertainment” and “fun” aspects every time you sweat and burn calories. Exercises should not be something boring. His program has thousands and thousands of participants in more than 120 countries creating a worldwide community throughout many years.

Interview with  Diego Arizala

Photo by: David Laplante

Tell me about yourself:

I firstly wanted to express my gratitude for this invitation. I was born in Cali - Colombia from a multiracial and milticultural family. I am based in Montreal-Canada after several years.

I’m a personal trainer and a fitness instructor in the evening and during the day I work in Clinical research in Psychiatry-Neurosciences in Montreal.   I love both jobs. They complement to each other. I’m a certified personal trainer, I have a title of Psychologist, I have a Masters degree from Concordia University-Montreal. I also went to Yale University  and Javeriana University.

Fitness for me is also about a balance between your body, mind and the community. It is a good tool to empower people towards a society where everyone could be included and never left behind.

I’m in the Fitness industry half of my life. I started teaching Tae-box, Cardio-kickboxing, bootcamp, cardio-military workout and now I’m also teaching Zumba which is an amazing program that works your body and mind. I’m amazed how it can change people’s lives.

Style is what for you?.

 It’s more than a body and clothes. Style is the expression of a deeper side of you:  your emotions, what you think and values. It’s about respecting and being yourself. Each person  is unique  and has her/his own style that can be polished with a work starting from inside of you. Diversity is one of the most beautiful things the human has. No limits of race, age, culture, gender, disabilities religion, etc.

Tell me about your diet plan for summer?  

Food is key to achieve my fitness goals. I  eat balanced meals and I love to include the superfoods every day. My favorites are chia, spirouline and macca. I usually take a banana, almonds and water between meals.

What about your fitness plan? 

Cardio, strength, balance and flexibility exercises every week. Core  and stretching exercises in every training.

Meditation and mindfulness are also important as a part of my fitness plan. Remember that being healthy is also about being well with yourself, your body and with others.

Photo by: David Laplante

What are your future projects?

Continue empowering individuals , communities, so they can achieve their goals and be healthier.

I’ll continue being a voice of a positive message and hope. In fact we can all do it. We can all make a difference in this world, so nobody should be left behind and everyone can shine.

Interview with @yesutoro

Tell me about yourself

My name is Yesu and I live in Madrid. I work in IT Consulting and occasionally also as a photographic model. Very active in daily life, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I’m also quite fond of gastronomy and traveling. I’m always open to face any new challenges life puts in front my way!

Style is what for you?

For me, style means how you clothe your personality, showing the world who you are, in terms of both your body and spirit. Fashion is about the clothes you wear, while style about what’s inside of you.

How you keep your life balance?

I try to fully enjoy all aspects of life without being extreme or fixated on anything. Taking care of your body and health is as important as having fun and striving for a happy life.

How you keep your body fit?

I train 5 days a week with the help of a highly qualified personal trainer, Hugo Teixeira (@corpus_style_nutrition) who not only creates a workout program for me, but also designs my nutritional plan weekly. In my opinion, even if you’ve been working out for years in the gym, the help of a professional is mandatory to maximize your fitness results.

Photographers: @joan_crisole & @inch_photography

Do you use grooming products?

For my face and body, I mainly use moisturizing creams and some anti-aging cosmetics. For my hair and beard, I use a special shampoo and oil.

Tell me about your diet plan

It’s quite detailed, including protein, carbs and healthy fats. I try to eat all kinds of foods: white and red meat, fish high in omega-3s, vegetables and legumes (always grilled or steamed). I avoid fried food and saturated fats. Even though it's difficult to manage sometimes, I try my best to eat 6 or 7 meals a day.

Tell me about your fitness plan

I am very old-fashioned regarding fitness and workouts. I always train one muscle group a day focusing on putting a lot of stress on my muscles and I train my abs every single day. In my opinion, the key to keeping your body working hard is variation. Don’t let it get used to one single routine and always vary your workout plan, intensity and diet. Otherwise, your body will remain the same.

Do you like travel? Which places you like?

I love travelling. I am always looking for new destinations to discover, but I also like to travel around Europe to cities I’ve already been to several times. India and Japan are now my pending destinations

What are your future projects?

Currently, I am promoting a Graphic Novel created by www.DavidCantero.com based on my Instagram profile: Yesutoro. I am also working this month on the charity ZarpaCalendar 2020 (@zarpamadrid), a male photography calendar we launch every year. One hundred percent of the profits go to a non profit charity association. In addition, I already have some editorial and art photo shoots scheduled for this year. Read the full article
