After achieving success as a celebrity trainer, with earnings reaching $600,000 annually at his peak, Castro transitioned into filmmaking, acting, and directing. He independently funded a budget of $2,000,000 on his first film, Lake George, and turned down multiple offers from streaming platforms to maintain full creative control over the project.

Castro has a background in mixed martial arts. His combat sports experience contributes to his tough, disciplined approach in both training and his personal life philosophy. Castro's MMA background emphasizes strength and mental toughness, which is evident in the demanding way he trains his clients.[1][2]
