When I Started:
Oct, 2001
How I Started:
I first started working out in 2001 to get into shape for the military. Once I started getting in better shape I fell in love with the gym and the fitness lifestyle. It was then that I realised that I wanted to help others achieve what I had, that's when I decided to pursue a career as a personal trainer.
Why I Love It:
I love seeing my body go through transformations, and becoming able to lift more and more weight. I love to challenge myself each and every day I set foot into the gym.
How I Stay Motivated:
By seeing other bodybuilders who have achieved what I want. By constantly being my own worst critic, and telling myself that I know I can do better.
BB Accomplishments:
Last year after I had major surgery to reconnect a severed tendon in my right hand. I had 4 months out of the gym and many sessions of physical therapy only to feel like I had lost all that I worked so hard to achieve. Once I was healed I came back in full force to regain all that I had lost in the gym. Now a year later I am stronger than I was prior to my surgery.

You look like you have made great progress and you should be proud of the hard work to get there. I hope that you continue to come back well from the injury, it can be hard work but it is worth it.
I do plan on posting pictures eventually but am not quite where I want to be so as to post pics.
If you ever get down here to Fort Lauderdale send me a message and maybe we can do a personal training session.
