When I Started:
How I Started:
Wow...this is such a loong story.
For the first 20 years of my life, I was a fat boy. I was very content with that life too. I was the kid that never ate off the kids menu at IHOP. "Mom, I'm getting the Pancake Platter", says young Sherman at 7 years old. And I CRUSHED IT...AND MY PARENTS' FOOD!!
Being fat was cool, I figured I'd make up for it by dressing well and smelling good (worked pretty well in high school)....
But I finally got to the point where I was tired of having a gut, tired of having man breasts (LMAO...it sucks!), tired of being ashamed of my body, so I did something about it...NO MORE FAST FOOD. It's amazing how that one thing changed my life.
I spent a summer in Boulder, CO for a summer internship, and after work, I had nothing to do but workout, so I worked out everyday. At 20 years old (see progress pic), I did regular ab workouts for the first time ever (saadd!!). I came back to school that fall and got love from ladies I never got love from....and that's what kept me going :) THANX LADIES!!
Why I Love It:
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER FEELING LIKE BEING IN SHAPE!!!
How I Stay Motivated:
I look at pics of my old self...
BB Accomplishments:
Going from a fat 290 lbs. to a skinny 220 lbs. to a muscular 240 lbs.
Description: This is some of the workouts that me and my workout partners do...more coming soon...check it out!!
Also, take a listen to some of my productions in the background!!!
Hey man your definately an imspiration. I was a big guy too all the way up until the begginning of this year, and decided to change. I was wondering if you could help me out, i had some questions on dieting getting big, but staying lean
I Was the personal Security for Myammee (I Love Money tv show) and the group F.L.Y. at Ludacris's headed concert about a month ago. My partner Kotti Ka Dotti produces total packages too. He's been trying to work some tracks out with The Games crew.
Keep at those tracks. It only takes one track to put you on.
Great, Great progress my friend! I was much the same way early on at the same age, been in fitness for many years, and because of accident reverted back to a very deconditioned state. The road is hard coming back.
Bodybuilding members like yourself help though. Keep at it.
Thanks bro! I have to keep grinding! I want to be like you one day! Your look and built is exactly what I am going for! How is everything coming for you? Still killing it in the gym? Keep me posted!
you already know me...lol. showing out! Thats how you get the damn thing done. lol! Thanks for the motivation...you sure gave it to me, dont ask how! ;-)
I didn't place , it was an international show, ladies from Peru, Colombia, Mexico, and South Africa. I was the baby too, lots of 30+. I give myself props for going up there , only one year of lifting under my belt. lol that was ballsy of me! anyway, I'm making BIG comeback this November, so stay with me! lol Are you competing? Stay blessed, JenCan
