Talk about starting young…

When an individual chooses to begin their bodybuilding journey it’s usually at an age in which makes credible sense. Most begin their journey in their teen years, a point in which they can take lifting more seriously. In your teens you have sporting endeavors like football, basketball, or wrestling to keep you preoccupied. In all of these sports an athlete can utilize weightlifting to better their performance. There are some instances where an athlete may see some interesting results from their lifting, perhaps bigger biceps, perhaps a larger chest, maybe even some improved wheels. From this discovery they may or may not choose to pursue bodybuilding as a long term endeavor.

But what about those who have been influenced from an earlier age? Individuals who have always dreamed of pursuing a future in which they would lift weights and grow? It’s rare, but in some cases there are kids that before the age of 10 realize that they want to grow massive muscle, perhaps in an attempt to look like their favorite favorite comic book character. Maybe they read a few issues of the Incredible Hulk and decided that it was the definition of what a man should look like.

Whatever the reason, it’s rare to see a child decide that bodybuilding is a way of life to pursue at an early age. But it appears that Bostin Loyd knew exactly what he wanted to do even from the young age of 6! It’s rare that you’d see a child take interest in bodybuilding at that age, much less see a child take to the stage to do his best bodybuilding impression and follow that passion all the way through to adulthood. Watch Bostin Loyd take to the stage at the age of 6 years old in the video below.
