When I Started:
Jan, 2005
How I Started:
I changed from Aerobic Printing Pressman to Correctional Officer. The Weight started to Magicly make my clothes uncomfortable. So I join a Martial Arts class 2005 and made it only once a week with my schedule. Lifting in 2008 added a new sport that can be done on any (free time) several times a week
Why I Love It:
I feel a sense of accomplishment to beat the log book stats. And after my first year my goals have been surpassed in lifts and body mass. Whoo Whooo!
How I Stay Motivated:
I want to stay healthy and physcialy capable to respond to a hostile inmate while on duty. Making new gains is another "Pump"!
BB Accomplishments:
Surviving first year of learning to train without injury or burnout. I have stuck with a planned routine that is always evoling and more challenging. Dead lifts and free weight squats rule!

Do you currently have a workout partner?
Yes
Why do you like having a workout partner? What are the benefits?
She is my Wife, and I huff, and I puff, so I can blow her house down.

What do you think about people who "grunt" loudly while working out? Do you do it?
Thats their thing. I just suck air in and push air out loudly. I guess I like the head rush of flooding my blood with oxygen.

Do you socialize while at the gym?
Yes
