Personal Profile of a Bodybuilder!
by Malachi Smith
My name is Malachi Smith and I’m from Tulsa, Oklahoma. I’ve always felt a drive to be physical.
Starting with knuckle push-ups, jumping jacks, and leg presses on my back pushing my dad off the floor at the age of seven and up through middle school. I remember watching the Million Dollar Man and the Incredible Hulk (when it was a sitcom) and thinking, "Man! I can dig it! These cats are fast, big, strong and smart! That’s gonna be me!"
Well, with my higher power, my dad’s love and support, and most of all, a loving, supporting wife and son, I’m on my way. I had a few legal detours in life which resulted in a deep soul search which continues to this day.
My current mindset is, “I’ve been given a drive, a purpose, and a will to be great. So, even though it’s easier said than done, I seize every day as if there is no tomorrow (though I do plan for it). I workout as if I’ll never get to do it again, but first and foremost, I don’t forget my 2nd chance in life and the many blessings life has offered me by my higher power. I sometimes sacrifice what I want, to make time for what’s important—church family, son, wife, and father. Because without this mindset and spiritual beliefs, my up and coming success wouldn’t be possible, rewarding, nor enjoyable.
