Chapter 01 · Before BYLT
The first uniform.
Before BYLT, before the 1.1 million followers, before any of this — I worked in a uniform.
Firefighter shifts. Police work. The kind of jobs where your body is the tool, your nervous system runs hot, and you learn very quickly what real strength looks like — and what it costs.
I learned what discipline actually meant in those years. Not the influencer version. The real one. Show up, do the work, don't quit when it's heavy.
