I never want to try to be a spokesperson for health and wellness because I most definitely am not the most in shape person in the world.

I don't have any concerns about my weight. I've always been healthy. I eat right. I'm just a big dude. I've always been happy with the person I am. So that will never change.

I've never had any health problems and I'm Ruben, man, all the way through.

My mother always taught me, even my dad, just never let other people's opinions of you shape your opinion of yourself. And I never have and I never will.

I'm not in the best shape, but I want to prove to myself I can do something that seems insurmountable and inspire others by showing them no matter where they are in their fitness goals, they can do it, too.

I don't want to be a one-hit wonder.
