Overall Goal: Failure is nothing more than practicing for success! Getting up after a fall requires far more courage than to have never tried to stand in the first place. Doing Work Crew is killin' it all day everyday!

When I Started:
Apr, 2006
How I Started:
I started because I wanted to go back into the military and I needed to lose about 80 pounds (I was around 285ish)! I took me about 7 months, daily workouts, the Zone Diet and a lot of dedication, but I did it! I have put on about 10 pounds of muscle. Working on shredding the last bit of fat around my gut.
Why I Love It:
I love the freedom I feel when it is just me and the weights. I takes me away from this place and for a couple hours a day, I have peace and calmness.
How I Stay Motivated:
Refusing to accept that I have to look my age! I am the new 20!

Goal (Long):
To look on the outside what I feel on the inside! No more letting "stuff" get in my way...I am in control of me!
Her outlook and unwaivering support gets me through some tough days around here...it is a honor and privlidge to call her my friend. Her dedication is obvious and her mood rubs off on you...You rock sister, keep killin' it in the gym.
Why does he inspire me? Really? His dedication is simply incredible. Everytime I doubt I can reach my goals...all I do is look at his bodyspace and I realize that all things are possible with dedication, hard work and faith.
