 What's up you guys? My name is Rafe Derrazy. Welcome to my channel. Here I will be talking about my experience living with HIV as well as my passion for fitness, namely natural physique bodybuilding and just becoming an all-around better person. My journey started six years ago on my birthday 2012 when I was diagnosed with AIDS. Not just HIV but full-blown AIDS which means that my immune system was completely compromised at that point. From there I decided that I was no longer going to be the victim of my own life and that entailed me taking back the reins and that started and materialized through fitness. I started working out all the time until the point where someone picked me out of the gym. He ended up becoming my personal trainer, my coach. He's the one that introduced me to natural bodybuilding and so I began my journey as a natural physique bodybuilder. Just this year I received my ProCard in INVA. It's a global federation for natural bodybuilders so I will be continuing my journey there. At the same time I'm really focusing on how to make sure that not only am I healthy physically but also emotionally, mentally and spiritually and so I will be sharing all those things with you guys as I learn them, as I go through them. Show you not only the good stuff, not only the things that I've conquered and managed to overcome but the things that I'm going through in the moment so that we can create a community where hopefully my experiences inform and inspire your own. And hopefully I can have a good impact on you guys. Maybe you'll learn something, maybe you'll be a little entertained but overall I'm hoping that you'll walk away from my channel as a better person. So please, if you feel like this is something that would interest you, go ahead and start watching my videos. Like them if you like them.
