Personal Info And Background:

When I Started: Sep, 2005
How I Started: After reading "The Art of Expressing the Human Body" by Bruce Lee, I began my weight training in 2005. Throughout Jr. and Sr. High School I ran track as a sprinter and only used weights at the beginning of the season for assessment. I have always been active some times having so much restless energy that I often don't know how to exert it lol.
Why I Love It: The sweat, the pain and soreness, and even better, the results from a routine and the progress towards another!!! It not only makes me feel good about myself but, it also reflects my outlook and appreciation for life in general.
How I Stay Motivated: I train for my life and with that everything that comes along with it. Seeing the results are great but, the feeling of getting stronger, faster, more endurance and stamina gets me going!
BB Accomplishments: 1st Place for the 1st Ever 5-man team Adventure Race at Yokosuka Naval Base

1st ever 5k run: Firecracker 5k Fourth of July Run
Time: 21:00, could've did it faster but it was a great run!

2nd Place in Command Physical Fitness Challenge "Hardcore" category.
Most Push ups(nonstop): 75
Most Pull ups(fully extended):20

It is not vitally necessary that you replace solid meals with whey shakes..that is, unless your solid meals are not clean to begin with. I actually only eat solid meals, just make sure the protein is very lean [chicken, egg whites, etc.]. Solid food fills me up more and since I am on such a calorie deficit, I try to fill up any way I can! Keep up your hard work and let me know if there is anything I can help you with :o)

Thanks Pal! But I already got a cute pair of steel toe boots used on the Railroad tracks. No, I didn't work the tracks, but I conducted some pretty solid tough AUDITS of several operating yards. Have a great week... *smile*
