Mighty Like Malcon!

Malcon Ruiz has been with Fujifilm AZ since 2017. He has been a leader of Industrial Athleticism stretches for his team and continues to be a force for lifelong fitness.

In the past, as someone who would eat out and drink soda often, he grew tired of the way he looked and felt. He noticed that he would work out for a while to get in better shape and once he made progress he would get lax around the workouts. The progress would then disappear, and the cycle continued. That is, until this past February when Malcon decided to get in shape and stay in shape!

Since the beginning of 2022, Malcon has completely dialed in his nutrition and exercise habits. What started as motivation to lose weight and tone up for his cousin's wedding has turned into a sustained personal commitment. He goes to the grocery store each weekend then prepares and cooks his food for the week to ensure he's eating what he wants to. He gets up early, makes his protein shake, packs his gym back and currently hits the gym each day after work for 90 minutes. And yes, he has said goodbye to soda and fast food!

Malcon has gone from 235 to 197 pounds over this year. He’s focused on feeling the way he want to feel: fit and toned. Perhaps the coolest part of this success story is that his cousin is now packing his lunch and hitting the gym along with more and more co-workers who can't help but be inspired by his newfound energy and happiness.

Let’s give a collective “Way to go, Malcon!!” Congratulations on all of your success, turning your habits around, and continuing to reach for the next level!

Keep charging everyone (whatever that looks like for you!),
