I had just reported to my first submarine, and was drinking pretty regularly. Beer bellies seemed to be standard issue, and one of the guys pointed out a couple of choice ones, telling me that I would be like that in about a year. The next week I was in the base gym. I have been hooked ever since.
Why I Love It:
I enjoy the isolation and the sense of accomplishment, both with the weights and with the results. And i am starting to dig using my body as a walking chemistry experiment.
How I Stay Motivated:
Seeing results, keeping a workout log, trying different exercises, smiling inside when someone tells me how much better I am looking.
BB Accomplishments:
Bulking up to 280lbs like an idiot, then dropping down to 230 with more sense. Hopefully I will hit 240 by the end of the year.
Forum Signature:
The internet is equalled only by public education and network news in its ability to spread disinformation at an alarming rate...
Increase lean muscle mass by 10lbs while dumping this donut.
Goal (Long):
Like many of us, I had a great body until I hit 35 and my metabolism crashed. I also got married at 35 and fell off of the fitness wagon for a couple of years. And so, in an attempt to regain part of my youth, and to be able to teach my son any sport that plays, I need to get back into shape. Over the past year I have dropped 50lbs and kept quite a bit of len mass. Now I need to continue to lose the fat and increase muscle mass.
Weight Goal:
I want to GAIN 10 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
9%

Skipped all but the CLA and the regular diatery supplements yesterday. It is harder for me to stay on schedule when I am at home than at the office. Today, I am back on my workout supp stack, and everything is going great. Took measurements yesterday and will compare in about 4 weeks or when...
I have two herniated discs in my lower back which limit the power exercises that I can do, and limited equipment in my home gym. Since I have lost so much strength, I am returning to a somewhat power workout to try and jump-start my development.
