Lopi, like many of us, found fitness to be his answer to take back control of his life during his darker days. He stumbled upon the classic movie Gerneration Iron back in November 2017 and became obsessed with the gym. The entire bodybuilding lifestyle captivated him and he embraced every aspect that it came with. Surely enough, those around him quickly noticed his impressive physique and were seeking his guidance to do the same.

​

In order to better assist others along his journey, he studied at the National Personal Training Institute of San Diego (NPTI). There he received his personal trainer certification along with multiple National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) certifications.  He became quite fascinated with his colleagues’ who specialized in power lifting because he noticed a difference in density in their muscles. This realization led him to develop a unique approach towards bodybuilding, which is now popularly known as powerbuilding.

​

While many have proven powerbuilding to be effective, Lopi continues to refine his methods through his understanding of recovery and holistic implementations. Utilizing his personal programming, he is fighting towards receiving his International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness (IFBB) Pro Card to compete against the worlds best.
