‘You are enough’: Ben&Ben’s Paolo Guico shares his fitness breakthrough
Paolo Guico of OPM band Ben&Ben shared photos of himself that “represent years of hard work and sacrifice” on his social media pages yesterday, March 9.
As he achieved his weight goal, he said that he wanted to “celebrate this growth” with everyone and to express his gratitude for those who rooted for him in his “lowest moments.”
The Ben&Ben vocalist also encouraged people who are on the “path of growth” and motivated them to do it for themselves and the people they love.
“Never do it just to please others, because it will never be enough. You are enough,” the singer wrote in the caption.
“In this picture, I also celebrate my stretch marks. [Because] they’re awesome. I also celebrate my past self, because he’s awesome too,” he added.
Moreover, Paolo Guico said that he will be sharing his “struggles” and the journey he’s been through in the coming weeks.
His fellow bandmates, friends, and fans Liwanag expressed their support and compliments for the feat he attained.
Behind his ‘major life achievement’
Three days ago, Guico posted videos of himself jogging via his Instagram page. Hadn’t been able to run for 2-minutes straight before, but he said that he has been able to “conquer” 21 kilometers now.
Having all of that for two years, he said that he has developed certain aspects of himself that he has also acquired “great musical ideas” during his running journey.
“If you’re struggling for a breakthrough, in school, work, life, for your body, or for your mind, yes rest for a bit, but know that you can get back stronger!! And you’ll make it! If I did it, you can do it so much better,” the caption reads, inspiring other people with different challenges.
