Growing up, national-level super heavyweight bodybuilder, Jonathan Irizarry, played football, baseball and tennis. Although he played sports, it was his mother going to the gym that inspired him to start lifting weights at an early age.
At age 15, Jonathan met a competitive bodybuilder. The bodybuilder said that Jonathan had a great build and should consider giving it a try. At 16 years old, Jonathan entered his first competition and has been hooked ever since.

He also has a 650 lb squat and a 750 lb deadlift. He can military press 285 lbs, and he can curl the 100 lb dumbbells for 5 solid reps.
