Jack Tresky

High School Junior Jack Tresky is ready for anything as he starts to big changes regarding his future. After playing baseball since 3^rd grade Jack found that he likes the lifting more than the playing. This is what sparked his new hobby of bodybuilding.  As he continues to study to be a physical therapist Tresky learns more and more about what he can be. He wants to use this knowledge to help other people out of tough times and become a role model for anyone who needs it. First off on Jacks list is to get past the expectations set for him. “On top of just enjoying lifting it gives me a way to break the plan that has been set on me by my parents,” says Tresky.

Eventually Tresky would like to be an image of success for other people. He wants to help them either by speaking to them or just by example. “I’d like to be on stage just to show people what they can do” says Tresky. An example Tresky used is Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold is a huge mentor and role model to Jack. “He moved to America and became an Olympian body builder, then a successful actor, and then a state governor. Three different careers in one life is a huge accomplishment,” remarks Tresky. Once he finishes school at Radford University with a degree in physical therapy Jack plans to get a job in the field. He hopes this will allow him to move out of his mom and dad’s house and in with his girlfriend in their own place.

Pursuing Physical perfection is just one of Jacks many goals. Without the true support he needs he has found it hard to move on past the negativity. Jack hopes that he can speak to kids or adults in order to get them past some of the same negativity he has faced. He does not like the idea of a parent ruling how a child spends their life and wants to help people see the problem with that.
