Q & A with TONY BEYER
a. Where are you from?
Born & Raised in Chicago, IL (Currently in South Florida)
b. Instagram name
c. What motivates you to train?
When I was 11 years old my grandma had a stroke in front of me. She never fully recovered from it and my family and I spent the last 8 years of her life taking care of her. She took care of everyone except herself, was very overweight, and I believe she could have recovered from or avoided the stroke altogether had she taken better care of herself. I’m motivated to train because that made me realize that it’s not about the length of the life you live but rather the quality in which you live it.
