 How did Michael Counihan get started with bodybuilding?

Initially, my motivation for working out came from training for football at the age of twelve. Throughout college I continued to have a passion for training. After graduation, I decided to pursue a career in the fitness industry. I became a certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor. I have now been working in the fitness industry for over 10 years. I have worked with a wide variety of clients from those just starting out on their fitness journey to professional athletes. My passion for helping others reach their fitness goals is what motivates me to continue working in this field.

Where does Michael Counihan's motivation come from?

I've always had trouble staying motivated for more than a few weeks at a time. I'll start working out regularly and eating better but after a while I'll start to slack off. This time however things are different. I'm more dedicated than ever before and I'm seeing results. Not only that but I have people counting on me now. My friends and family have seen the changes in me and they're proud of me. They're also depending on me to stay this way. I'm not just doing this for myself anymore; I'm doing it for them too.

I have always enjoyed helping people and being a police officer allows me to do that on a daily basis. I love the feeling of making a difference in someone’s life even if it’s just a small act. It’s also gratifying to know that I am keeping people safe and protecting their rights. I take my job very seriously and I am proud to be a police officer.
