I have always been a healthy person, even as a kid growing up. Though, I got tired of being a stick. My fast metabolism made it almost impossible to gain any weight. I began training calisthenics in my junior year of high school for the fitness team. Never touched weights until I turned 18. I believe I was underweight, at an estimate of 120lbs. A friend of mine brought me to a gym and introduced me to the world of weightlifting. Since then, I trained hard and gained a solid 20lbs of muscles.

I never really practiced any specific sport during my childhood and always wanted to improve my overall athletic ability. However, it is was difficult to find that one sport that I would be dominant. My weekly training allows me to feel good about myself. I feel that I actually accomplished something oppose to when I tried picking up a sport.

I stay motivated through the visible results of my hard work, compliments from others, and just the feeling of accomplishments after that grueling workout.

My biggest accomplishment to date, is the transformation from a stick figure to a solid 143lb human being.
