MY STORY - WHY
I STARTED THIS CLOTHING BRAND
Comfort and confidence, if you don't feel comfortable in your gym clothes, it's hard to think of anything else.
BYOND GR8 GYM APPAREL
Hi there, my name is Christopher, founder of this Canada based gym apparel brand. The concept of beyond great (BYOND GR8) stems from the mindset that although you may have some type of medical condition, like me (T1D), or even a lack of resources, greatness is still attainable.
I truly believe that we are only limited by our work ethic and mindset. So my mindset is Hoist Heavy Weights, Demand Greatness and Have Fun Doing It!
Two things I wanted to focus on for this clothing brand were providing high quality pieces and being different to the typical “logo design” gym brands. I want the graphic tees and tanks I design to be an outward expression and representation of us lifters.
A Little about me:
In my 30s
T1D for 31 years
Living in Toronto
I enjoy drinking coffee ☕️and hoisting heavy weights 💪🏾 (many of the graphics for the brand revolve around these things 😀)
I train for health and aesthetics but lately I’ve been intrigued by powerlifting
I’m a coder, I love creating something from nothing
