In addition to his successful career as a fitness professional and Olympia coach, Ali’s personal competitive bodybuilding career spanned two decades as he was awarded the prestigious Mr. Texas title in 2017 after winning the Heavyweight division and Overall 1st place at the 2017 Texas State Bodybuilding Championships. Putting his vast knowledge and processes into practice, Ali established AFS Premier Fitness to later become the world’s leading Body Transformation Center, with the sole mission to change lives, one transformation at a time®.
The founder of The Carb Coding® Diet
After almost a decade in the fitness industry, Ali had seen and encountered a vast array of people, and similarly, a vast array of challenges facing individuals in their pursuit of physical success. His tenure in the fitness industry both as a competitive bodybuilder and as a distinguished fitness expert left him with a unique approach for accomplishing goals and overcoming obstacles. One obstacle that was consistently problematic was the dietary component accompanying fitness programs.
In 2011, and after conducting years of extensive field research, countless interviews, first-hand application and listening to feedback from individuals, Ali achieved his life-long dream, the creation of the Carb Coding® diet – a specialized diet program that makes eating right easier to understand, easier to follow and easier to achieve results through a simplified numerical “Carb-Code”!
Ali invested more than a decade into the development of the Carb Coding® diet program because of his firm belief that nutrition, personal training and body composition tracking are three inseparable tools to the ultimate body transformation. Ali works alongside his elite team of Dallas personal trainers applying the Carb Coding® diet and AFS’ methods to create a lasting impact on a larger scale.
