Hi, my name is Joshua Zhou and I am a rising Junior at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. I have always been a skinny, underweight, nerdy kid with no physical prowess, barely able to do a pushup. Every day, after coming home from school and finishing my homework I would play video games and scroll mindlessly on my phone. At the end of middle school, I decided that enough was enough and I finally got into the gym. In the last two years, I've gone from 108 to 144 pounds, gaining nearly 40 pounds. Fitness, however, is not my only passion. It has always been my belief that you can be fit while also maintaining other aspects of your life. At around the same time I started weight training, I also began pursuing computer science. In fact, I made the website you're looking at right now. I hope that through LiftLife I can inspire others like me to put down their devices and pursue a healthy life.
