When I Started:
Jan, 2005
How I Started:
I hurt my back in 2001. I was depressed and gained about 50lbs.. When I got promoted to SGT in Jan 05 I decided that I was going to be a good NCO, and I couldn't do that while I was out of shape. I met with my Neurologist and some Physical Therapists, and we worked things out so I could get in the gym and lift, and start running again. Once we worked out the administrative side of things, I got started.
Why I Love It:
I love the way I feel after a work out. I love the pump.
How I Stay Motivated:
I have to compete with Soldiers and NCO's younger than me everyday.. I stay motivated by telling myself that I have to be better than them. My girl keeps on my a$$ about getting in the gym when I feel lazy. Knowing that my girl thinks I'm sexy.
BB Accomplishments:
Losing the 50lbs of unhealty fat. Added 15lbs of muscle

Not since I've been in the Gym.. just since I've had a chance to sit and write anything.
I'm still in the process of finding a partner that is willing to lift with me, and can hang with me. Most are willing to try, but 3 or 4 workouts into it and they have something to do, or they are...
I think I keep my weight anywhere between 185-200. Now if I could keep some consistency then I would be in business....
