My name is Roger Kawall, and I was born and raised in New York. I am a big proponent of physical activity and have sought to exemplify this throughout my life. I started out in Tae Kwon Do at 7 and became one of the youngest black belts in my dojo at the age of 13.

My journey into fitness started at 14, working my first job at a gym. I was captivated by the energy of the people around me—fit, vibrant, and full of life. It was clear to me even then that fitness wasn’t just about aesthetics; it was about enhancing lives.

I came to the USA from Colombia in November of 1989. I saw my first bodybuilding magazine in a newsstand in 42nd st. On the cover there was this guy with huge triceps performing a single overhead triceps extension. It totally blew my mind. I felt that’s who I wanted to become; a bodybuilder.

Growing up I loved playing football, but I was always one of the smallest players on my team. I tried everything under the sun to get bigger and nothing seemed to work.
