He wanted to become as big in size as him because he was his inspiration since the beginning so he stared working out in his father’s home-gym at the age of 14, which was an initial step into his fitness career. Another reason was him being very tiny since the beginning and his seniors bullying him for what he was so wanted to grow big and to forego the entire backlash he faced since his time in high school.
Also, he considers late Greg Pitt as his only fitness idol, as he thinks him to have the best physique and the same attitude as him so he worked out at his intense level and tried all possible ways to stand where he is right now.
