Mini bio
How it started.
Jesse first made lacrosse videos with a friend in seventh grade. After starting an independent channel in May 2016, they began uploading regularly in 2017. By spring 2019, their mix of game footage and fitness videos had passed 12,000 subscribers.
From the field to the gym.
Originally from Sparta, New Jersey, Jesse played college lacrosse at Lehigh before transferring to Montclair State, where they studied communication and media arts. Fitness challenges and collaborations later became central to the channel, including strength contests and visits to celebrity home gyms.
Competing, too.
In 2023, Jesse documented contest preparation in a YouTube series that ended with a Classic Physique class win at Summer Shredding in Houston. Later videos brought together construction workers and bodybuilders, visited MrBeast’s home gym, and used a fitness creator competition to raise money for St. Jude.
