Hood Health 101: “A Better Me 4 Life” 8 Week Challenge

While Fokis puts the finishing touches on his Upcoming album Underground With Commercial Appeal, which features Guilty Simpson, Skyzoo, Torae, Sadat X, Chi-Ali, Oh-No and more, he is also on a mission to get fit. The Lower East Side emcee/producer has set forth on an 8 week fitness & nutritional challenge titled “A Better Me 4 Life”. The challenge began on October 19, 2015 and will end December 14, 2015, with the weight goal going from 231lbs to 215lbs. “I was introduced to Crossfit in April of 2014, I started at 303lbs and have worked my way down to a current weight of 226lbs. Strict Paleo eating; no alcohol and a lot of Crossfit will ensure great results after the 8 weeks are up. I was so inspired by my first 12 week challenge a few months ago, that I created a song for it. Most of you guys have been there for the whole ride, from fatness to fitness. The ride is not over and really will never be as we should always strive to be better. With that being said, check out episodes g 8 week challenge as well as a snippet of my upcoming single ‘A Better Me (Keep Pushing)’. This is my story and i am sticking to it.” -Fokis
