I started lifting w/my dad and his friends (and my brother too sometimes) in our garage. Standard garage lifting...lots of bench, curls, bb rows and an occasional lunge/crunch haha I then got into competitive powerlifting in college w/Joe Kenn at Boise State University. Transition into strongman in 2000.
Why I Love It:
You get out of it what you put into it...
You're generally the only one to blame for anything bad...
It's a great stress reliever...
You only have one body, better take care of it!!!
How I Stay Motivated:
I'm a pretty motivated person, in general, so staying motivated is pretty easy for me. However, competing adds to that. It gives me certain tasks on a certain date i have to prepare for. And since I want to do well when I compete, I push it hard when i'm in contest prep mode.
BB Accomplishments:
I won the national championships of strongman and got my pro card in October of 2003. I was ESPN and Fox Sports competing at Muscle Beach to try and qualify for World's Strongest Man (in 2005 & 2007). I won "Most Popular" athlete in the 2008 Quebec Cup (a series of contests held all over Quebec during the summer).

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
