Today we’d like to introduce you to Hakeem Benjamin.
Hi Hakeem, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself
I start off just working out every day. One day, a guy called me and ask me if I would like to compete as a bodybuilder. I said, nah, I’m good. I’m not wearing them little under, lol. He told me he would sponsor me. Then I thought, well, I’ve never been sponsored. So I did it. After that, I started training full time. After working for someone I just wanted more for myself. I end up leaving and starting my own business. Which is called muscle is mone.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Trying to get my own gym it’s so many obstacles/barriers. Trying to get loans just going out to get help is just some of the many challenges.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I’m a personal trainer/ travel trainer. I specialize in weight loss muscle building and dieting nutrition.
Who else deserves credit in your story?
My wife, son and my coach/ mentor Harvey Franks.
