From Rock Bottom to Role Model
“When my son was asked who he wanted to be like, he said, ‘My dad—he’s the strongest man I know.’ That was it for me. That’s what being Superhuman means.”
The Life-Threatening Moment That Sparked His Transformation
In December 2020, Joel Garcia was sitting on the couch with his kids, watching a Christmas movie. At 394 pounds, he suddenly felt chest pains and a shooting sensation down his left arm. Fear gripped him: Was this a heart attack?
After a three-day hospital stay, a doctor looked him in the eye and said, “You’re 42 and almost 400 pounds. You need to change your life.” That sentence didn’t just rattle Joel—it ignited him.
Days later, the unthinkable happened: his best friend died from COVID. Within that same week, Joel lost his job and tested positive for the virus himself.
Laid off. Sick. Grieving. That week could have ended him. Instead, it became the week that made him.
“Supplements Are the Ally—Not the Answer”
“Supplements are an ally. They’re not going to fix your problem. You are.”
Joel’s first taste of Superhuman Burn was a revelation. After years of pre-workouts that tasted like battery acid and left him disappointed, Alpha Lion’s Blue Smurf flavor tasted amazing and delivered results.
He didn’t just sweat—he drenched his shirt before even touching a weight. That day, he bought three more flavors and Gains Candy MitoBurn. But Joel makes it clear: it wasn’t magic—it was mindset.
Supplements gave him energy. He brought the discipline.
From Hospital Bed to Helping Others
Joel started walking. Then lifting. Then winning gym competitions. But most of all, he started believing.
He rebuilt his career with a job just one block from home. He joined a gym that finally felt like it belonged to him. He stopped hiding and started leading. Dads at his son's wrestling matches began asking for his advice.
Now? He's the guy others look to when they want to change their life.
Why He Refused the Shortcut
“I told the doctors, I’m not interested in surgery. I want to earn this.”
Doctors pushed surgery. Friends recommended medications. Joel said no.
Not because he judged those who did—it just wasn’t his path. He believed in doing it the old-fashioned way. Every pound lost would be earned, not handed to him. And that’s what made the journey priceless.
“I don’t believe anything’s impossible,” he said. “The gift is in pulling off the miracle yourself.”
The Day His Son Called Him a Superhero
Joel has lost over 100 pounds. But the biggest win? When his son said he wanted to grow up to be like his dad—because his dad is the strongest man he knows.
That moment hit harder than any milestone. For Joel, that was the milestone.
He now wakes up every day grateful, powerful, and humbled. Not because he’s perfect—but because he kept going when life gave him every reason not to.
