Today we’d like to introduce you to Preshious Eichenberger.
Hi Preshious; so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work life, how can you bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
My journey started in 2018, right after graduating from Texas State University. I was unhappy with myself. I knew I needed to change, starting with my health and wellness. When I moved back home and started my new job, I began going to the gym with my mom and grandma as a part of my new post-grad routine. This is where it all started. We woke up at 4 am every morning and worked out at Planet Fitness. My goal at the time was weight loss. I had no experience in the gym, so I just did what I could and learned on my own as I progressed. I lost a total of 50 pounds on my own. People began noticing my results, so I created a fitness Instagram account to document the continued journey and inspire as many people as possible to get healthy. Shortly after, I began my studies to become a certified personal trainer. Right after receiving my certification, I was allowed to expand my platform at the one and only, Lift ATX. My clientele picked up so fast. I was working a new 9-5 job and training clients as a side hustle during the earlier COVID days. Fast forward 2 years later, I am now a gym owner at 27 years old.
Alright, let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what challenges have you had to overcome?
The journey has been far from smooth. I could write a book listing all the challenges that I’ve faced along the way. However, one of the biggest challenges is people not taking my brand seriously. I’ve had to tell people no numerous times, speak up when I didn’t like something, and stop accepting the bare minimum. I have learned to stand firm on what matters and let no one take advantage of my kindness. And, of course, waking up super early every day is always a challenge! I call these good problems, though.
