I decided to take Weight Training my Junior year in High School, and I ended up having the most gains in my class, although I was doing so many things wrong. I would train in school, then go home and do it again. After I took that class, which was one semester, I started training at home with 20 pound dumbells and my bodyweight, of course, High rep EVERYTHING. That led to overtraining and Tendonitis, which I didn't know I had for a very long time. My first year of training was full of mistakes.
Why I Love It:
It gives me a great sense of accomplishment when I look in the mirror, to know I have educated myself in actual bodybuilding, and produced the results I have in, really, the past year.
How I Stay Motivated:
I look to my friends for another perspective of my growth since they have known me.
Knowing I have many years of training ahead, and that I am a work in progress. (Although it is sometimes hard to want to slow things down!)
BB Accomplishments:
Close to 20 LBS. muscle gain in the past year and a half.

I have always been one of the skinniest kids I know, and I'm in this to change that. I want to gain high quality muscle, also with size. I like to concentrate on having the things that signifies a real bodybuilder... Crazy Traps, Quads, back, chest, and calves. It really gets to me when people do bicep curls day in, day out, and call themselves weightlifters. I train every single part of my body. If you're going to cut your hair, you usually cut all of it, right? Why do your body any different? I weighed 135 pounds when i began bodybuilding, and I am anxious to see how far i can push my weight upward. I have managed to gain close to 20 pounds in the past year and a half/two years, and have actually probably lost a bit of the miniscule fat that I did have. Being able to lift heavy weights isn't my main concern. I don't care about benching 3 times my bodyweight. I care about looking like a bodybuilding freak!
