Juggling two of your passions may be quite a stretch to sustain, but if each passion reinforces the other, then the task may seem effortless. Such is the case with model, fitness ambassador and personal trainer Culver Padilla. From sunrise to sunset, he manages to switch roles from being a personal trainer to being the head of the family.
His day as a fitness trainer starts at 6:00 am in the gym, which consists of assisting clients, researching on fitness updates, and working out for himself.
“Fitness is a lifestyle for me - my bread and butter. As an ambassador of fitness and living a healthy lifestyle, I have to set an example for others, especially to my clients. How can I convince them to live healthy if I don’t walk the talk? Besides, I’m also doing this for my family. I want to be there for them longer” said Culver.
From work, which ends at around 9:30pm, he switches his responsibilities from being a trainer to being the head of the family as he bonds with his wife Debbie and their two boys, Cloud and Zeus. He considers this shift as a way for him to recharge from work.
“I have two boys who are my source of strength and inspiration. Cloud, 6 years old, and Zeus, who is 2 years old. Cloud has been showing me different fitness moves already.t’s hard to tell if they will follow my footsteps in the future.
