But Alex was determined to defy the odds and reclaim his life.<\/p>\n<p  style=\"margin-left: 0px!important\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"height: 473px;width: 429px; max-width: 100%;float: right; margin-left: 1rem;\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/msgsndr\/tm8Dxz88sJbOqq3JnUhL\/media\/66ec73a1f70cbd579a8a001a.jpeg\" alt=\"Alfaro starts wallwalk\" title=\"Alfaro starts wallwalk\" data-wrap=\"right\" class=\"wp-image\" width=\"429\" height=\"473\"><\/p>\n<p  style=\"margin-left: 0px!important\">Before coming to Fit 901 | CrossFit 901, Alex wasn&#8217;t a runner, cyclist, or someone who worked out, though he had been active when he was younger. In just 60 days at Fit 901, Alex lost over 25 pounds and over 6% body fat. But the changes went far beyond numbers on a scale.<\/p>\n<p  style=\"margin-left: 0px!important\">\ud83d\udca5 Alex now leads a happy, well-balanced life, filled with activities that bring joy and fulfillment. Gone are the days of coming home and sleeping the day away. Now, it\u2019s all about running, biking, and enjoying every moment to the fullest. Alex is spending more quality time with family and setting an inspiring example of what a happy, healthy life looks like. Everyone has noticed how much better he looks, how much happier he seems, and how he&#8217;s resurfaced and truly begun to live again, back in the world with everyone.<\/p>\n<p  style=\"margin-left: 0px!important\">Now, as an update, Alex is about 120 days into his transformation journey!
