Since a very young age, he has been fascinated with how things worked and how they were created. He would take things apart to see if he could re-assemble them and have them work. This was the beginning of the engineer that wanted to design a great physique. Having studied the physiques of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the bodybuilders of that era, and the comic book characters such as superman and wolverine, Torre started sculpting his body with a dumbbell and a bench. Some years later he acquired a degree in engineering, but his passion for sculpting physiques never faded. His passion drove him to have the courage to start learning about bodybuilding and begin competing. He took a great leap of faith to pursue his dream to become one of fitness greats and share this gift with the world.He is currently a trainer on the Fitness and Nutrition app called Centr and has a fitness and nutrition program you can check out here. https://torrewashington.com/The entire goal of this podcast is to sincerely help you focus on practical optimism and progress in your life instead of expecting perfection from yourself and others.
