The Art of Intentions With Kenta Seki, Celebrity Health & Fitness Trainer
Kenta Seki has spent years shaping the way people move, train, and show up for themselves, but his journey has evolved far beyond reps and routines. What started as a pursuit of followers and fitness deals has grown into a mission to create real impact, inspire balance, and redefine what it means to live well. Here, he shares the principles that guide him, the lessons learned along the way, and why intention matters just as much outside the gym as it does in it.
In your journey as a fitness influencer, how have your intentions shifted over time — e.g. what you aimed to achieve when you started vs. what you aim to achieve now?
Honestly, when I first started, my goals were pretty surface-level. I wanted the sponsors, the followers, the likes… all the shiny stuff.
Thankfully, over time, that shifted. Now I care way more about creating a genuine, positive impact in people’s lives. It feels so much better to focus on purpose and meaning rather than just numbers on a screen.
What are some guiding principles or mantras you live by?
If I were to narrow it down to 3 principles, they’d be:
- Karma is real – I’m a big believer that what I put out into the world will eventually circle back, so I try to treat people the way I’d want to be treated.
- Progress over perfection – Things won’t always be “perfect” and that’s okay! Just focus on doing better each day.
- Enjoy the Journey – Life’s basically a road trip - you’ll miss all the good views if you’re only staring at the GPS. So I try to slow down, laugh at the inevitable detours, and enjoy the ride.
