DC Bennett is at an early stage of his fitness modeling career. As he narrates, “the opportunity presented itself roughly six months ago.” He enjoys that through this endeavor, he is able to present his body to those people who appreciate the hard work he puts into it. “It’s also a rewarding career path with the ultimate return, which brings a healthy lifestyle.” He loves the challenge of looking and being the best he can be and the motivation derived from competing with other models.

One thing he finds valuable about fitness modeling is all the networking involved in the business. “With each shoot I attend brings the opportunity to meet individuals who can help better yourself in some form, whether it’s educational or promotional.” And it’s true, for anyone in the business, networking is indeed an important part of the process. It is one that allows any and every male fitness models to become a successful one, considering he fuses some networking skills with the hard work he puts in the gym, every single day.

Asked to compare fashion modeling and fitness modeling, DC answers ” fashion in my opinion is the more challenging of the two.  Many individuals can put time into transforming their bodies into shape; on the other hand, there is a certain look/vibe that one has to bring to the camera to capture a great fashion photo.” However, he asserts that character is still a necessity in fitness modeling, although a higher and more intense volume is required for anything that is fashion-related. As for role models and person he looks up to in the male fitness model world, he first defines that those he look up to are individuals whom he can gain the most knowledge from as an observer. No other than the most in-demand male fitness model on earth, Greg Plitt, is in his list of men he admires in the industry.

DC wants men and women all over to think of him when anyone describes a fitness physique. He would also like to brand himself as someone with a strong work ethic, who puts long hours to look the way he does and enjoys every minute of doing so!
