Fokis is on a quest to lose weight and get fit, in the form of a 12 week challenge he’s labeled A Better Me. A Better Me is a 12 week fitness and nutrition challenge designed to inspire and enable others to build a better version of themselves. By sharing his own journey to become A Better Me – fitter, stronger, faster, Fokis hopes to inspire & be inspired by all those who watch and participate.
"A year ago I weighed 303 lbs. I was not happy with myself nor where my life was heading. My appearance and my health were in a rapid decline along with my state of mind. All areas of my life suffered and as an artist I had lost my passion to make music. I fell into a creative funk that I couldn’t climb out of. Then in April 2014 a friend of mine introduced me to Crossfit and it completely changed my life. One year later I'm down 50lbs and my goal is to lose another 50 and break the 200lb mark by the end of 2015.
Crossfit has reinvigorated my mind and body and with this newfound energy I returned to the studio on a mission. My upcoming album Underground With Commercial Appeal is a completely unique body of work that is mixed with precision and packed with eclectic & powerful music. I am now ready to embark on my next journey -- a 12 week challenge where I’ll take my health and fitness to a new level while raising the profile on my upcoming album. I want to campaign ‘A Better Me’ for everyone and get people excited -- not just about my music -- but about getting fit, eating healthy, reaching goals and bettering lives."
The challenge began Monday 5/25/15 and will end Monday 8/17/15, each week Fokis will do his Monday Weigh-In and post to his Twitter/IG/Facebook. On Thursdays He will post his weekly video journal which will recap the week. You can check out the first weigh-in below.
