#AIMAG2017 I got as far as third yesterday. I won against Afghanistan and Taipei before falling to China in the Semis. I wanted to thank everyone who helped me get here. An athlete is nothing if not for the team backing them. First off I'd like to offer this victory to the Big Man upstairs. It's always a performance for him. Secondly I'd like to thank the POC, the PSC, the PTA, our other sponsors and Grand Master Hong for allowing me the opportunity to compete in such a prestigious tournament. (Special shout out to congressman Monsour del Rosario for constantly looking out for us!) Following that I'd like to thank coaches, coach Dindo Simpao and coach Japoy Lizardo, our strength and conditioning coaches, coach @jfuts and coach Martin, Compound, Dr. Jason Han and all of my teammates for prepping me for this event. I'd also like to thank our PT Juan for being ringside. Thank you Arturo Aro and Jeaneth Aro for the meal plans and prep and Timothy Jeffe Ting for helping me figure out workout supplements! Thank you also DLSU coach Roberto Kitoy Cruz, the DLSU team, OSD (Osd Grace C. Alhambra, Joy Joyi, and Ate Marj etc.) and the DLSU student manager Biean Abao for supporting me while I'm away! Following this I'd like to thank the support team back home and my family, my parents, my siblings, and my girlfriend Kristine Lotilla who always help pick me up after a loss. Last but not least, all of you who have watched me on this journey! It has truely been a blessing 😉 sorry guys IG isn't letting me search your IG handles :( . . . #motivation #inspiration #success #leader #leadership #athlete #hustle #sparring #taekwondo #champion #goals #dreams #entreprenuer #business #sweat #legacy #work #grind #passion #desire #excellence #lifestyle #tkd #hardwork #happiness #effort #family (at Saparmurat Turkmenbashi Olympic Stadium)
