Overall Goal: "No Excuses" - If you really want to achieve a goal, be prepared to work hard for it, sweat for it, bleed for it. Otherwise, you don't really want it as bad as you say you do.
Fit Status:
Going through a get-lean cutting phase! HIITs all around!
Serious training started around November of '07 but I was on and off at the gym since I was 18. I've been playing soccer since I was 5 but I was always the chubby kid. Back in 2006, I decided to go back playing soccer and got in touch with my goalkeeper side. I felt I was too slow and prone to injury a LOT. I eventually fractured my right elbow during a diving save so I was out of soccer. I decided to work out my soccer muscles and saw progress (it was all legs and abs exercises that I did and some cardio) so I figured to just go all the way and get into full body training when my arm got better. Been lifting every since. :)
Why I Love It:
It's my sanctuary. It gives me a sense of purpose and focus. Seeing the effects of CONSISTENT training with proper nutrition is mind-blowing!
How I Stay Motivated:
Let's face it... people make fun of fat people. I was the one always singled out and made fun of because of my being overweight. For every rep I make, for every mile I run... I dedicate it to all those who didn't think I can actually change my body and take control of my life.
BB Accomplishments:
Since I play goalkeeper... My own personal accomplishments are building up my soccer muscles. End product: I'm faster, more powerful, less prone to injury, and yes... I'm one of the scariest goalkeepers you'll ever see on the pitch.
Every fat person needs to do something for other people not to notice the fat. I did anyways... I'd goof around and show everyone what a "funny and great" guy I was just to compensate and justify not working out. You all know how it is! People who say, "Oh I'm confident about how I am" but they're l ...

The key is maintaining an appropriate meal frequency, size and composition to help keep blood glucose levels even throughout the day. Proper fueling distributes calories, so many players can benefit from eating five - seven times per day (small meals).
Hey buddy! CONGRATS! You rock. I have 100% in my classes. There was one test they gave extra credit and I got 102%. I'm sure your finals were very hard though, so yeah, that's awesome. As frustrating as my tests are, (with this old brain) I'm sure yours are much worse. Very proud. Enjoy the holiday break!
Took the girls to the Nutcracker on Saturday. That was kinda fun. We knew alot of the kids since it was my daughter's dance studio who performed it. So that was neat. She wasn't in it though, she's not in ballet. Good luck with your finals this week. Then enjoy the break, after finals I'm sure it will be greatly appreciated!!! =)
Been busy as usual, doing ok. Been missing hubby more lately..... guess it's the holidays and all. Still doesn't feel real when I see his name or see his picture, can't believe he's gone.
Got another 100% on test yesterday.... yeay! did you ever hear of Super Size Me? well we watched a movie kind of a knock off, Super High Me! LOL! Got was clean for 30 days and then smoked pot all day for 30 days to see the effects it had on him. It was in CA where you can go in those dispenceries and get pot legally with a prescription. It was hilarious.
lol... jump roping!! U been getting inspired by the lil ones at the play ground??? U got all kinds of toys to rock out a good workout!! Nice!! Hope ur good doll.. have a great holiday week!! have u tried the monkey bars yet??
So, like I said, I think in a way I don't what this next year to end too soon. Will enjoy the friendships and the experiences in class. They really do things to make it interesting and fun. =)
Very proud of you buddy!!!!
Wow, busy lil boy! That's alot. But good to do it while you are young. Then you reap the benefits a lil longer. Yeah my one teacher said her hobby is school. She's been doing different schooling over the years and now got into teacher at YTI and loves it. Have 3 teachers and they are all very nice. First one is like a friend, and very funny.
I can be working in my job next November, not so bad. so you still have 2 yrs. to go huh? How many have you put in already? Guess I can't complain huh? today was cool, mostly got books, got to know each other, and got to watch a history video of how cocaine came to be. lol! So not a bad first day!
BUT I think maybe now I know why God designed me with so much bullheadedness! lol! I am determined, and I will succeed. I pretty much believe that because I didn't go into this with a light attitude. I take my schooling serious, and will work hard and succeed.
