Folsom High Attended 1997 to 2001 Folsom, California United States
When I Started:
Jul, 2004
How I Started:
Went through a crisis in life, needed an outlet, started lifting....then I got over the crisis....and didn't stop lifting, I fell in love :)
Why I Love It:
Its the physical epitomy of choice and will. Like Pacino says...its a game of inches...one workout, one meal...may mean very little in isolation. But years of workouts and meals makes a champion.
How I Stay Motivated:
Its easy when you decide what your goal is, and what you will have to do to achieve it...then you just do.
BB Accomplishments:
The best is yet to come...

The epitome of the balanced, healthy, selfless man.
A bodybuilder who has gone from 250lbs to 150lbs, and everywhere in between, and won 3 pro cards and set power lifting records, all through tragedy, injury, multiple jobs, full time school and being the back bone of his family. A man I am privileged to call my friend.
