I started working out when I was a fresh meat freshman in high school lol. While going through my high school experience, I really got into R.O.T.C and various sports which also got me really got me into it. It was all a matter of time before I wanted to try to make it a way of life.
Why I Love It:
When I started to work out in high school, a small part of me was doing it because it felt great and I enjoyed that muscle gains that happened as a result but during that time...However...the main reason was because I caught a lot of female attention to be honest lol...But who can blame me for that? We all know thats when majority of the female curiosity starts up in full force. Thats just real talk lol.
But as I got older, I went off to join the United States Army Infantry in dedication to my uncle that passed before he had the chance to see me join the Military. At that point, working out became a major way of life for me. Not only did it feel great, it was also great for me on a mental, physical, and spiritual level.
How I Stay Motivated:
Sometimes I find it very hard to stay motivated while working out...I think that this is mainly because doing the same routine can just give you muscle fatigue. When this happens I tend to reflect back on what I'm really trying to accomplish, where I came from, and how hard I worked to get this danm far.
Aside from having the "Great Body" I want to live and very long and "Healthy" life for my Lovely wife Norissa and so I can watch my baby girl Aiynnia a.k.a Ms Bad Ass lol be all that she can be in this life.
BB Accomplishments:

Passing my PT Test in Ft. Jackson South Carolina with 340/300

What MH3000 Is Up To:
Sep 14, 2009
MH3000updated Motivation Level from 7/10 to 9/10 and said: "10lbs away from 200!!!"
MH3000is inspired by dstunna. Reason: "This guys body type and genetics are amazing! i would kill to have the delts that he has...when I 1st got on to this site it was'nt very lon... "
It's time to take my body to the next level. I am so sick of looking at myself int he mirror this way...It's time to go to work!
Goal (Long):
I have always had a nice "Body Build" from what I have been told. I could always fill out a shirt real nice, and I could get away on just showing off my arms or something...
God blessed me with a good frame work I think...But I knew that wasn't what I really wanted, nor would I be able to keep up that look by only doing non consistant workouts.
I have always looked in the mirrior and saw someone else that was in great shape with the full blown abs, pecks, etc... And now I want to bring that person out full force. My main goal is to stop slacking and unlock my full potential.
Right Now I have focused Majority of my attention on trying to get both my mind and my body on the next level by...ummm...sometime soon lol. That would be a great way to start the New Year with a New Body. I wish getting there was as easy as it sounds lol, but Im sure I can get there if I just keep it consistant...and alo to kick MikeDCool's ass in our bet lmao!!!
when im slacking in kansas city, this guy all the way in atl makes it a point to get in my ass via yahoo IM all the time. thats more motivation than any of my friends from my own damn town lol. he is a inpirational ass hole lol.
When I first got on to BodySpace this guy was actually the 1st page that I came across! Looking at his pics till this day has always made me want to stay motivated. Another true example that hard work pays off for you in the end. One day I'm going to catch you...But untill then you Inspire me to keep moving forward.
HIIT ( High Intensity Interval Training)15-30 minutes every other day works wonders in a short time.

It really depends on what im trying to accomplish in the gym. for the most past I do 5 sets of 15 to 20 reps with low weight normlly for cutting, but ont he days that I am trying to bulk i'll just do 3 sets of 5 to 7 or till failure reps with hevy weight.It really depends on what im trying to accomplish in the gym. for the most past I do 5 sets of 15 to 20 reps with low weight normlly for cutting, but ont he days that I am trying to bulk i'll just do ...more
Well Im about 4 weeks into this LL workout program which is 22 weeks long. I felt like when I was in the gym that sometimes I was a chicken with my head cut off so I wanted to sit down and focun in on a new routine...thats when I came across this workout. Here I have listed pretty much the...
Triceps - Bench Dips : For maximum tension, fully extend arms, but be sure to avoid hyperextension. Start with arms straight on a bench or chair with feet placed on another bench or chair parallel to each other. Bend your elbows and slowly lower your body to the floor until your arms reach a...
your diet should be opposite actually, you need the protein from meat to maintain muscle mass, the carbohydrates is what your going to cut back on, you should limit your carbs to early in the day and cut them off as the afternoon rolls around
LOL, we'll see.
Hit me up tomorrow and I'll give you something that'll probably make it even faster. The problem is will you be able to stand it. I know how you have those moments ...
A cutting diet usually consists of an eating plan that has you systematically lowering calories and/or carbs in your diet. Its usually progressive unless you're just extreme about everything and drop your calories to something ridiculous.
Its not a good idea though. You need to know how many calories you're getting in now (food log) in order to properly assess where you're going to be going.
Or like I said, be crazy.
So true bro, we just have to keep pushing and pushing, never stopping! Trying to obtain what we thought was impossible! Biceps looking good in the avi, you keep on doing your thing!
To reduce your bodyfat you're gonna have to focus on cardio & dieting. There isn't a really method to lose bodyfat in particular area. Weight dips & decline presses are good for the lower chest. Thanks for adding me as an inspiration also. Keep working hard.

Looking great Michael! Congrats on your achievement with the armed services! Keep lifting bro, it gets better that's for sure. As for me, the doctor is about to shut me down to remove the pins/plate from my left wrist. I will be MIA for about 45 days.
