When I Started:
1995
How I Started:
I was always the scrawny kid who never got any attention. It started out as a way to impress others, now it's an addiction to impress myself. Push myself to the limit and beyond. It's a challenge I can undertake and succeed at on many levels.
Why I Love It:
I do it for the mental stability it brings to me, the healthy lifestyle, and the sheer joy I get from walking into the gym.
How I Stay Motivated:
PHOTO COMMENTS! I love me some photo comments. They help me stay motivated! :) New routines. I'm constantly tweaking my routine by adding sets or reps or new exercises. Also, reading fitness magazines always makes me want to jump into the gym.
BB Accomplishments:
I was 145lbs and couldn't gain weight for the life of me. In 9 months I put on 35lbs by eating healthy and constantly. Doing it naturally gave me the motivation to keep pushing myself to the limit and always set new goals.
Forum Signature:
I'm living it, I'm doing it. My training journal: www.downeyworksout.blogspot.com ChicagoBldr on www.muscle-book.com I rep back 100%! Reps owed on recharge:

How many reps per set do you usually do? Why?
As many as I can until I cannot do the movement any longer. It totally fatigues my muscles.

What bicep workout has worked best for you?
Hammer curls. They really build that peak.
- Updated Dec 23, 2008 6:01pm

What tricep workout has worked best for you?
Anything overhead to work the long head of the tricep.
