Jared Wells

Jared is a bodybuilder with Cystic Fibrosis (an incredibly serious lung disease) who shows you just what can e accomplished when you put your mind to something.

Jared had all but given up on life. Managing his cystic fibrosis was hard enough, but then he was diagnosed with lung cancer and spent the next five years fighting the disease.

In 2018, the then 21-year-old inspired thousands when photos and videos of his workouts went viral. At the time, he had just been cleared to exercise following a stay at the hospital.

At his first competition, he placed fourth and fifth in his classes.
