Cong TV's Son Kidlat Is His Motivation To Stay Fit, ‘Gusto Kong Maabutan Niya Kong Malakas’

The newest addition to the surge of successful weight loss and fitness journeys is none other than Lincoln Velasquez, popularly known as Team Payaman's Cong TV.

The YouTube content creator and dad we love recently shared photos on his Instagram account with just a one-month difference: from a bulging stomach to a fit and muscular Cong. He said, "Nakakabilib kayang gawin ng isang buwan pag nagdecide ka talaga na may magbago. Excited na ako para sa one year!! Shoutout sa coaches ko [in] this journey!"

But more than losing weight and looking good, Cong revealed he has a deeper reason why he pushed through with his fitness journey.

"Para kay Kidlat 'to," Cong TV said in the introduction of his vlog, released two weeks ago.

"Gusto ko ang abutan niyang version ko, 'yung version na kaya makipag-laro sa kanya. Kasi totoo 'yan eh, 'pag 41 ako, dun palang siya 10. Pag 51 ko, dun palang siya bente." —Cong TV

In his fiance Viy Cortez's separate vlog, Cong shared more about this, "Kaya rin ako naggi-gym kasi gusto kong abutan niya (Kidlat) kong malakas. Gusto ko ang abutan niyang version ko, 'yung version na kaya makipag-laro sa kanya. Kaya siyang sabayan sa trip niya. Kaya mag-basketball. Kasi totoo 'yan eh, 'pag 41 ako, dun palang siya 10. Pag 51 ko, dun palang siya bente. So 'yun palang yung peak niya as a… kung maging atleta man siya or kung ano man yung trip niya sa buhay. So gusto ko, nandoon ako sa tabi niya. And gusto ko magabayan ko siya all throughout ng buhay niya hanggang sa kaya niya na yung sarili niya."

Cong's Motivation

The vlogger with over 11 million subscribers on YouTube continued to say, "Para kay Kidlat 'to, kinukuha ko lahat ng sakit niya. May sakit si Kidlat ngayon, kaya nagpapalakas ako para sa kanya."

While filming his workouts, Cong and Viy's son, Kidlat, was admitted to the hospital. Cong made this his motivation and pushed through with his gym sessions, even though he lacked sleep. Because he couldn't go home, he and his personal gym trainer looked for 24/7 gyms near Kidlat's hospital.

Cong also shared another reason for his fitness journey, "Ito rin 'yung one of the main reasons mga paa bakit talaga ako nag-gym. Kasi may problema yung liver ko. Hindi naman ako nag-iinom pero 'yun nga, may ganung klase na ano... May fatty liver na ako."

While staying in the hospital with Kidlat, Cong also had some blood tests done to check if there were already some changes, a month after he started his diet and workout.

He happily shared his conversation with his doctor, who said, "Yung results mo from August to September, ang ganda."

His blood test results came back normal, from his fatty liver to cholesterol and uric acid. He told his doctor, "Grabe yung isang buwan ng work-out, 'yun yung kaya niyang gawin."

His doctor agreed and said that on top of Cong's exercise, his diet, mainly chicken breasts, also made a great impact on his health. He started eating a 'clean diet', and jokingly said, "Kahit nga tubig, pinaghihinalaan ko kung anong ingredients."

He ended his vlog, "I'm so normal. I'm so healthy. I'm so happy. I'm so good."

Congrats, Daddy Cong!
