Raising the Bar

Native Wacoan Bilal Siddiq is a personal trainer, a Group X abs class instructor and a fitness model. On top of all these things, Siddiq still finds time for his degree in pre-med health science studies and time to stay involved at the McLane Student Life Center.

Siddiq had a vast background in high school sports, including powerlifting, basketball and football, which were coming to an end. He wanted to see what else he was capable of outside of typical high school sports.

“When I first started in high school, I was an avid powerlifter lifting heavy, heavy weights until I was 16 years old and my joints are paying for it now,” Siddiq said.
