When I Started:
May, 2007
How I Started:
When I was younger (10 or so), I used to see how many push-ups and sit-ups I could do in 30 seconds and 1 minute. In high school and college I played football and wrestled, so off-season workouts were a must.
I returned to the world of iron in May of 2007 to begin a new journey in my quest to be healthy and fit. It had been over 5 years since I’d last thrown the iron around. Now a little older and wiser (hopefully), I have a newfound perspective, motivation, and determination to stay healthy and fit.
Why I Love It:
I love the adrenaline rush from a good hard workout or throwing up heavier weight than you did a month ago. There is such a sense of accomplishment leaving the gym with your muscles all pumped from a good workout, especially when you initially didn’t feel like working out that day.
How I Stay Motivated:
All of the beautiful, fit, and muscular bodies on BodySpace are a great source of motivation.
Now I've adopted a healthly lifestyle and I love it! After 2 years of working out I am able to take time off from working out to rest and as long as I eat healthy my physique does not change much. It is amazing at how much all of the hard work pays off!
BB Accomplishments:
Staying motivated and determined to be healthy and fit.
Forum Signature:
"Turns out its not where but who you are with that really matters."
This pic is about 3 months after I started working out again. Drastically changed my diet and was seeing good progress in abs. Don't have a pic from when I originally started.
SHORT GOAL: Maintain body weight around 168 - 173 lbs. and reduce body fat to around 8-10%.
LIFE GOAL: Stay committed and focused to maintaining a fit and healthy lifestyle. Not allow my job to consume me and my time. Keep life in perspective and focus on the things most important to me (family, friends, working out, healthy lifestyle, and helping others).
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 5 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
8%

Why I like this video: Not a fitness related video unless you consider how ripped Boyd Tinsley is. Just a beautiful song from the most influential band in my life.
Well it has certainly been awhile for me since I've actively managed my bodyspace profile. For those that are interested, I have continued to work out hard. I just could not manage the profile all of these months due to work, family, friends, moving, work again... well you get the idea. ...
I am so glad to see you here. Yes, accountants, CPAs, etc. can workout. I supervise the accounting office in a police department and a couple officers were in the weight room when I was doing concentrated curls. They were shocked that someone from accounting had 17.5" biceps. Hey, we like to workout too!
Hey man..whats up..been a long time since I got on too! lol..just found my password...so how you been? Looking good man!! Just got back into the gym again..
