MANICNAV

The gym didn't save me — I saved me by showing up every day when motivation was dead.

I learned how to bet on myself when no one else would touch the odds.

Progress taught me patience. Pain taught me honesty.
Every rep was proof that I could choose differently.

I watched addiction strip everything down to the bone — and it showed me exactly who I was when comfort was gone.

I don't chase escapes anymore — I chase capacity.

Strength replaced self-destruction.
Consistency replaced chaos.
And every win now is earned, not numbed.
