Sweat Gym 4151 Main St Philadelphia, PA United States
College:
High School:
When I Started:
May, 2009
How I Started:
I started actually trying to get bigger May 2009 - after 6 years of lightweight rowing.
I'm a D1 rower, ultra-distance runner, triathlete (well I did 1 olympic triathlon and came in 3rd place), and a swimmer. I hope to inspire people here to get fit the right way. I graduated college with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and was captain of the SJU Varsity Rowing team.
I am on my way to medical school and would really like to use the knowledge of health that I have gained to help others make gains and accomplish the unthinkable.
Why I Love It:
When I'm doing a workout and someone sees me pushing my limits, maybe lifting more than they'd expect and hearing ("steroids") off in the distance. Especially when I even hesitate taking TYLENOL lol.
How I Stay Motivated:
Drinking lots of Coke.
The woman in the gym today who said I looked beautiful while I was doing squats HAHA.

This is after I stopped running for about 3 months because of a bad knee. I'm trying to build muscle although you might not be able to tell here.
What to see the rest? Well sorry BB.com I'm not that easy. I don't blame them though, I put this picture up about a month ago and got an email from the webmaster. He said "Mr. Python, we have received several complaints from our members that your picture shows just too little. Please show more o ...
She inspires me because not only is she ripped, but she makes me laugh out loud. She has a way of building me up, then shutting me down with her monster bench stats! We have extreme modesty and perfect qualities in common.
Why I like this video: This is pretty much how I started. Back when I didn't have much money and couldn't afford a gym membership. I didn't have much to work with but I didn't let that stop me. I would go to the desert every day after school to use anything I could to get RIPPED and show off for the Indian girls. As you can see from my physique, I have come a long way in my transformation.

Why I like this video: Before bodybuilding my goal was to be as "hip and funky" as possible. I woke up every morning and put on my acid wash jeans one leg at a time along with my XL shirt. Most days I hung out with my friends next to my pontiac firebird being funky for the boom-box and whoever would walk by.
I got to the point where I thought I was hot and everyone else was, well, not. I believed I topped everything. Life was good.
Then, one day this nobody-girl from my high school rode her bike over and actually TOPPED that as you can see. After that day, I was never the same. Since then I've been bodybuilding.
As you can see, my overall goal is "to stay out of the comfort zone." But what is the comfort zone?
Before I explain, I will give fair warning that you cannot achieve this during every exercise you do, and that it is not for the average joe workout finatic. Rather, it is for...
