If I had to live my live over, this is how I would like it to be when I was 19...This guy is packing serious muscle and at the same time he is very serious about his faith. May God pour His blessings out on this guy and keep the evil from ever touching him. Great stuff bud. G.

Why I like this video: Full of testosterone and love to show of, such is the teenage male years. Well this is a collection of some of the finest bicep poses from teens all over the world. Between them are US soldiers in Iraq, wrestlers, track athlete's, high school students and college guys. They all got one thing in common - they love to built muscle (and so do I - lol!). Hope this get's your ass off the sofa and back into gym. You might have missed the teen years to get that muscle but DON'T miss another day. Wish you all success. G.

I read your transformations article. It's great and very well written. I was extremely moved by your story and how you emphasize spirituality. I never even thought how God could be applied to fitness, and you really helped me realize how distant I've been from God these past few years. I've been so self-centered I have neglected my savior. Thank you for showing me the light!
