We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Quantarrius Wilson a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Quantarrius, thanks for joining us today. How’s you first get into your field – what was your first job in this field?
2009, I was approached by a well-known personal trainer who was venturing off from Bally’s to create his own brand. I was freshly released from my job at the time, but was in fairly decent shape from collegic wrestling the previous years. Since my physique fit the part of a personal trainer, DeAnthony Moore offered me a personal training position at his new fitness studio in Overland, MO. With my background in sports, I felt that this was the perfect opportunity to begin a new career. 12 years later, it’s been the best decision ever.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
Being a natural bodybuilder for 10+ years, I saw the gap between tested and not tested payouts and recognition. I wanted to facilitate change within the industry and showcase natural bodybuilders in the same light as untested athletes, as well as reward them with monetary awards and prizes that more adequately matched their hard work and effort. I created ROQ Solid Events with athletes in mind and I have enjoyed seeing the support and watching it grow.

If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
If I could go back, I would definitely do the same profession. There is just something about helping people look and feel a certain way that makes me want to continue to feel and look a certain way. It’s motivation all around. I really enjoy the educational side of fitness, teaching others, and learning and applying what I learn to my lifestyle.
How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?
I believe that leading by example is one of the main reasons that I was able to grow within this industry. I practice what I preach, live a healthy life, and showcase and teach others how to do just that. I strive to be an example of what life can be, happiness, health, & wealth.
