The former Yilungelo Lakho presenter, previously shared that his journey began in January 2023, when he weighed 160 kg.

“Wellness and fitness to me is not seasonal or a short-term goal. It’s a lifetime commitment I intend to devote my entire life to. This means I intentionally make it a part of my daily routine and find a different reason to show up every day,” Spitch said in one of his Instagram posts.

He added that his journey has become about more than just losing weight.

“It’s no longer just about weight loss and shaping up. It’s about strength, stamina, and discipline. I am instilling discipline in myself and want to build as much stamina as possible. What I practice in the gym, is what I will practice in my life.”
