When I Started:
Sep, 2005
How I Started:
Have always been active in sports and weight lifting was always a small part of that. As I have grown older lifting has taken more of a center stage role.
Why I Love It:
It's a great stress reliever for my high stress life, plus I love the feeling I get while doing it and watching my body change over time.
How I Stay Motivated:
Staying fit, active and athletic as I get older. Seeing the changes in the mirror as I look better. Plus I really enjoy crushing the 20 somethings in the gym and on the field or court:) Having my gorgeous wife tell me I'm hot doesn't hurt at all either.
BB Accomplishments:
Looking better in my 40s than I did in my 30s. Having the 20 something males tell me they wish they looked and played like I do.

Members That Inspire PastorMan:
PastorMan does not have inspirational members yet.
Been doing CrossFit for over a year now and tonight we did some strength benchmarks to see how far we have come.
A bit disappointed that my deadlift PR did not go up since it had been increasing consistently.
I tied my PR at 385 and then benched a strong 260. That is down from my PR of 300...
I started doing CrossFit at the beginning of April and will never go back to a regular lifting routine. I now wait for the WOD on Crossfit.com and am building elite FUNCTIONAL FITNESS. I don't want to just look good physically, I want to BE GOOD ATHLETICALLY!
We did. We already bought the house but will spend Christmas with family. Staying pretty busy. How are things going for you? Still swimming? Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Doing good. We're in the process of moving. It'll be a couple of weeks yet. We already closed on a house and are ready to move on. Angela is doing great. We'll go see the Docs again here in a few months. How are things going for you and yours?
That was on the Old Camp Trail when we were coming back from the Sunrise Camp heading to Sunrise. Wish we'd been there a couple weeks sooner for the wildflower bloom!
Sounds like your training is going strong!Great work. I had a buddy I hadn't seen in a while tell me this weekend that I've put on mass. It's hard for me to tell at times cause I see myself everyday. That's was a great positive reinforcement for that I'm doing the right things. Little stuff like that keeps me motivated.
hey Rev, how have you been? hope this found you well and still liftin, like that is ever going to stop.
any new challanges or developments.
stay focused
You're welcome! Another game tonight. What I like about the gym he plays in is that there are cardio machines along the side. So I can hit the treadmill or elliptical during the game and still watch..whoo hoo!
