Tori Clement’s Went From Overweight To American Ninja Warrior

ISSA certified personal trainer, Tori Clement’s journey took her from being overweight to American Ninja Warrior.

 

Vital stats:

Before: 253lb,

After: 143lb

 

What challenges made you change your lifestyle?

Every day, I faced the struggle of my clothes fitting uncomfortably, or not at all. One of my biggest challenges was my mindset; a lack of confidence, low self-esteem and zero motivation to feel, look and perform better.

 

What was the turning point for you?

When I stopped focusing on how I thought I should look, and concentrated on gaining strength, power and balance. It made everything I thought was important fall into place.

 

How did you identify your new goals?

Setting goals brings out the best in us and helps push us forward. When I started training on obstacles in 2015, my strength was nowhere near the level expected of American Ninja Warrior. As I began to grow stronger, my goals grew with me and I realized competing on ANW wasn’t out of my reach after all.

How did you overcome any obstacles?

Even the most painful experiences can lead to the most extraordinary opportunities, and keeping yourself physically and mentally strong helps us overcome those obstacles.

 

How did you stick to your meal plan?

Through planning and preparing my meals in advance. It’s all about giving your body the nutrients it needs, while also maintaining a balance and enjoying the foods we love to eat.
