When I Started:
May, 1993
How I Started:
I wanted to improve my appearance and fitness level. Coming out of high school I was over 350 lbs.  A good friend taught me enough about nutrition and weight lifting to get me started.  I started to see results and have strived to do better ever since.
Why I Love It:
Resulting increased energy and improved appearance.  After a workout, I have a much more positive attitude and my self worth / esteem is much better. 
How I Stay Motivated:
Setting an example for my family (wife & 7 year old boy) and seeing incremental results. Learning from others on this website and seeing what they have overcome has been inspiring.

How many reps per set do you usually do? Why?
I typically start out with 12 reps and descend to 6 reps with increasing weight to maximize muscle growth.
- Updated Sep 5, 2008 8:04pm

How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
1 minute. It tends to take my body that long to recover. If I start at a faster pace with the same workload I struggle with completing all the exercises I've planned during my workout.

Hi everyone,

Its been awhile since I last posted so I thought I'd give a quick summary:

Day 43:  Chest, Shoulders & Triceps - My nutrition was on track (2750 cal) however I didn't complete my workout.  I had the seasonal influenza shot so my left shoulder just wasn't quite up to...


Current Supplements:
PowerBar PowerBars, Box Of 12, Chocolate
Started: Jul 01, 2005
Reason: Enjoy the taste and it provides the nutrition / energy spurt I need.
