Sion Monty35, put on 100 pounds in six months following his son Tedi was born, while coping with becoming a father while running three businesses. He vowed to lose weight, trade his father’s belly for a six pack, and get his son involved in his exercise regimen.running daily, doing hill sprints and taking long walks with Tedi in his pram.
But thanks to a diet review and exercising six days a week, he lost those pounds, with the support of his now five-year-old son and his proud wife. And that was not the case: he went one step further and dedicated himself to bodybuilding, gaining muscle and working on his six pack. In November 2022 she took a silver medal at the National Association of Amateur Bodybuilders UK Open.
Mindfulness, he says, is the secret: he reads a lot of books on how to have a positive “growth mindset,” believe in yourself, and make things happen. Now Zion help change the lives of other parents who find themselves stuck in a body image rutoffering them individual advice and sharing their advice on social media.
She works out five times a week and watches her calorie intake, but insists that the key to physical transformation is inner peace following battling anxiety. He also owns a gym in Porthmadog, Wales. “I packed on the pounds during the first six months of my son’s life. Tedi, my partner Kara and I took a photo at a photo booth and saw myself for the first time since Tedi was born. I was embarrassed and shocked, I own a gym and had gotten carried away. That gave me the boost I needed to get back into shape, and now I’m very happy and a much more active father to Tedi,” he told the South Wales Argus portal.
And finish: “I just want to inspire him and show him that anything is possible.”
