The AR Lifestyle Story
Choice Not Chance – A Life Rebuilt, A Legacy Forged
AR Lifestyle isn’t just a brand—it’s a movement built from the struggles, lessons, and victories
that shaped me. It’s about owning your choices, standing against the odds, and building a life of
purpose.
Our story is one of battle—both on the field as a veteran and within myself as a man who faced
darkness head-on. I’ve seen what it means to be lost, and fought to find my way back.
Through my own journey of self-destruction, redemption, and resilience, I came to understand
one undeniable truth: we are the sum of our choices, not our circumstances.
That’s where "Choice Not Chance" was born. Built from Struggle. Driven by Purpose.
AR Lifestyle exists for the ones who refuse to be defined by their past. For the warriors, the
fighters, and the ones who’ve stood at the edge and chose to push forward. This brand
represents accountability, growth, and giving back—because true strength isn’t just
about standing tall for self, but about lifting others up along the way.
...It isn’t just my story. It’s yours too.
