Each training session I'm getting better and better. I have no other duties now, no worries, it's all about training, eating and sleeping.

For me, time is everything, because from the time you wake up you have to have your heart and soul in this. You have to work through the day, you have to go to the gym, you have to eat, and yet you have to work as fast as possible to get home and get rest before the next day begins again.
