"I am just trying to get my body, and mind in the best shape that its ever been...(Get My Fat Ass In Shape)...However I'm trying to accomplish this by 1/01/2009....Sigh....I had to chnge the date lol"
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:
Making it through 18 weeks of Infanrty Basic Training at Ft. Benning Georgia and Passing my PT Test with 320/300
Passing my PT Test in Ft. Jackson South Carolina with 340/300

This is where I am at now. Its been hard work but they are finally giving my arm some show off
Just trying to update a bit for the month of Finishing up December
I am just trying to get my body, and mind in the best shape that its ever been...(Get My Fat Ass In Shape)...However I'm trying to accomplish this by 1/01/2009....Sigh....I had to chnge the date lol
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 1/1/2009. 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
Which pro bodybuilder/fitness/figure competitor has the ideal physique? Why?
LL Cool J all the way

How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
sometimes I dont wait at all if im doing 3 sets of 15 reps making the end result 45, sometimes I will try to just to go all out and go to the 45. There is really no reason for it but I really dont like to get too much rest in between sets, if I can knock it out then I will do just thatsometimes I dont wait at all if im doing 3 sets of 15 reps making the end result 45, sometimes I will try to just to go all out and go to the 45.

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...
a little of it has to do w/ genes honestly, b/c i have trouble brining up my biceps... but i start my shoulders routine w/ lateral raises when my focus is for width...then i do shoulder press...
for abs i keep my reps low (12-15) b/c building ab size is the fastest way to a great set of abs...not doing 1000 reps a day...
ha ha, well, you sound like me. I've been 'bulking' for a few weeks. If you want to call eating fruit for carbs bulking. I might continue on for another month as well.
Then well, time for cutting again. Let me know when you start so I can talk trash and can throw some nuggets your way.
ha ha, well, thanks for lighting a fire up under my ass.
Serving notice huh. I guess I should go to bed so I can wake up in 6 hours. And hit the jump rope.
Yeah.
ha ha, aaaahhh man. you decide to step it up when I finally decide to start taking this seriously.
And you doing cardio ALL NIGHT running around a hospital. Yeah, this must be rectified.
Damn, you know. My face is blocked off. I had no idea. I guess thats why people ask for face pics.
Well, I guess it keeps weirdos like you from figuring out what I look like. :-p
LMAO, dude please.
You're losing already. I know you secretly gained 30 lbs with your double whopper addiction. Attacking my hair.
LMAO, go run off some french fries dude.
I'm good. I got down to 189 at the end of June, which was nice. I messed up this month and I'm just getting back on top of things. What's going on with you?
thanks so much :) i agree the sizeon taste nasty as shit.. i wanted to throw up when i first tried it. if you mix it with Gatorade and lot of water it's not so bad.
Depends on the phase of training I'm in. Still building mass so not doing cardio much. Stairmaster!!!
In cut phase 20 minute low impact then interval after strength training for 25 minutes I will do interval training.
Man, I have been MIA for a bit. I work too much but I enjoy my work so ... I guess thats the price we pay.
I need to have someone online get on to me about lack of updates and the like. I'm still at it in the weight room and on the stepmill now. LMAO, so are we still on for 4-29 man? How you progressing?
I'm good Mike. What's going on? I was just away for a couple of days. Got a new (to me) gadget, refining my schedule and been busy at work. So, I haven't bee on the site for a couple of days updating my info like usual. Otherwise, I'm still on it and I'm doing OK. How have you been? I think it's time for you update your weight stats. Last time I know you said you were down to 222. How's it going weightwise?
