My Future is My Why

My Name is Steven Ayala and I have been passionate about health and fitness for as long as I can remember. I'm a husband and father of 3 beautiful children and I believe that it's my responsibility to become the best version of myself for them. Over the last 5 years I have dedicated myself to learning and growing in every area of my life, not just fitness and nutrition. I’ve learned over the years that health is something that encompasses all parts of your daily life and I have had a challenge breaking old habits and creating new better ones that will lead to more happiness and fulfillment in my life. But it’s all worth it when I see the results of my discipline and work come out in the smiles and happiness on my family’s faces.

My Mom got Sick!

About 3 years ago my mom became very sick and we had no idea what was going on with her, even the doctors weren't sure and seemed to be making things worse. After a few days of testing She was eventually diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and they were able to help my mom. This is when I decided to dive deeper into health and nutrition, I felt helpless watching my mom in pain while she was in the hospital, I needed to learn how I can help without using man made drugs and chemicals. So I thought to myself why arent we being taught more about preventative care? Why did mom's condition get so bad even though she seemed healthy and normal just days before she was diagnosed? What steps do I take to prevent this from happening in the future to others that I care about? These questions led me to the right teachers that shared the proper information to learn how to prevent disease. My mom has since made a great recovery with the help of some holistic doctors and diet and lifestyle changes. She is even able to produce normal levels of insulin again and is living a healthier life.

Take Back Control

Now my mission is to help as many people as possible take back control of their health by providing information and support  through my coaching programs at Apex Fitness Collective. I started this company with a goal to make what is normally complicated and scary, like health and disease, into something easy to understand and preventable.

Sometimes it just takes one person to influence you to make a decision that will change your life completely, that's why I will continue to share my passion and remind people that there is greatness in all of us and it just takes ACTION to bring it out.
