Collin has been working out for 4 years. He started when he was 12 and obviously at that age he wasn't working out a whole lot. But he was starting and learning how to lift properly and starting with lighter weights. He is now 16 and in the last 2 years he has really grown a lot (and still growing). He has been very faithful and consistent with not only lifting weights but eating and consuming lots of protein! He drinks a big protein shake every night before going to bed. I hope this video inspires others to stick with it. Looking forward to watching him continue to grow and get stronger and doing another video in 2 more years when he is 18! I hope you all will join along!
Thanks for watching! We invite you to come along and be a part of our journey of life!

it's time for an update on Colin we're
going to do another 2-year
transformation we'll even look at what
the fouryear transformation looks like
when he first started lifting weights
way back when 4 years ago as a little
12-year-old going into Planet Fitness
and then we did the 2-year update 2
years ago when he was 14 and he made a
lot of progress of course you know
you're a growing boy you're hitting
puberty you're growing so that's part of
it but he's consistently been working
out now he's 16 growing even more
getting bigger getting stronger and
during that four years he did break his
knee that set him back a little bit and
then last year he broke his arm which
again set him back a little bit not able
to lift so strengthwise he may not be as
strong as what he could be had he not
had those brakes but look that's part of
life that's part of playing sports and
just being active you may get injured
and injuries with set you back a little
bit but you keep working you do what you
can keep progressing all right so let's
get in here we're going to do some
updates over the next few days we're
going to do try to hit all the body
parts and we'll just kind of piece them
all together let you kind of see what he
was doing before weightwise where he is
now how much he's grown so stay tuned
let's see him progress let's see what he
looks like you guys out there that are
young they're lifting make sure you're
doing it safely don't overdo it but keep
working you two can make progress build

woo yes sir that Flex
you don't have to hyper
extend I can't really
feel if you do a bunch you will feel it
so Colin's going extra hyper extension
which you don't have to do but he's just
trying to stretch his back out a little
bit more so he's doing some
hyperextensions I wouldn't recommend
this with heavy weight but with your
body weight if you've built up to it I
actually do it for my bulge disc and my
lower back and it helps with it
that's a wrap on day one of chest and
back time to go get some protein now
feed those muscles we'll be back for
tomorrow day two of what you think bu

ooh R to
the here's a variation if you have a
flying machine this is where you can do
a single arm you come a little bit
further across your body kind of angle a
little bit and then you can bring it
further than if you're doing at a
time she just coming across and just
squeezing that arm squeezing that
chest really F squeezing
[Music]
n
[Music]
all right so column has been a variation
of rope pull Downs push Downs where he
was leaning over uh he was going a
little heavy but that's okay he was
going heavy so there's a little bit more
movement a little bit more rotation so
just a variation if you're doing lighter
weight stay stricter form sometimes you
want to go heavy just shock the muscle
you can get a little bit more rotation
like he was doing just don't overdo
it we keep running faster and faster I
don't know what we're after we're after
yeah we keep up with disaster
disaster I'm thinking that they're after
they after me running

to be a wrap for the video I know we
didn't get lower body in I wanted to get
it in we just couldn't get a third day
in so we'll have to do that in another
video guys I hope this was inspiring
especially you young guys out there
working out wanting to get bigger
wanting to get stronger thinking it's a
a huge mountain to climb and you just
can't do it you can you got to be
consistent you got to be dedicated and
just put in the time put in the work
Colin has really been dedicated these
last couple years especially he has been
determined to get that extra protein eat
he just really didn't eat a whole lot
and he's kind of forcing himself to eat
more get more protein so every night he
drinks a big old protein shake in the
morning he's getting he's eating eggs
and just getting protein throughout the
day and that's really helped you you
have to get the nutrition in guys you
got to get that protein in if you're
going to get bigger going to get
stronger going to develop those muscles
nutrition is a key so anyways keep
working guys keep pushing you can get
