When I Started:
Jun, 1978
How I Started:
My brother got me into it. I was in the 6th grade and my brother was a Sr. in high school. He was getting ready for his SR. year playing football and I went to the gym with him. My biggest memory was benching 135 pounds (the wheel and axle) two 45's on the bar. I was hooked from that day on because it made me stand out amoung my peers. My brother passed away at 39 years old but to this day whenever I warm up with 135 pounds I think of him.
Why I Love It:
Stress reduction. I truly feel that if I could not work out I would die.
How I Stay Motivated:
It is hard with work and other factors. I just got back into the gym after about a three year lay off. It has been a tough year for me personally. I gained weight to 305 pounds and had a terrible bodyfat. I started working on my diet on October 16th 2007,then got back into the gym on November 16th 2007.
Since October I have lost 55 pounds and cut my body fat by over 10%. I am averaging over 3% reduction in bodyfat a month. I am on my way back!

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
Arnold in his contest days. Nothing like it then or since. He has always been an inspiration. I also think that that dude who was King in the movie 300 had a pretty good build.
Wow has it been that long that I posted to the blog? I looked at the last date and it said July 31st. Ok I know I suck.
Lots happened though with work, I had a training injury in mid September that really threw me off as well. Any time you tear a pec muscle you are in for trouble.
Thanks Bud :) I hope all is well with you! I've had an amazing week! Please vote for the finals!!! http://www.bodybuilding.com/ir onman_model_search_voting.ht m
