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...

What Quelly Is Up To:
Feb 2, 2010
Quelly changed Body Fat from 11% to 13%, a gain of 2 percentage points in 63 days
Attain pro status in a natural bodybuilding organization. Raw Elite in powerlifting. Help natural bodybuilding grow and expand.
Goal (Long):
I would like to attain my natural pro card and achieve Raw Elite status in power lifting. Help natural athletes excel and promote natural bodybuilding as a Team 3D Muscle Journey coach.
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.
A true gentleman, and an amazing athlete. Luke has laser focus and a love for the sport. Always improving and never held back by any ego. Literally one of the biggest natural bodybuilders I have ever seen grace the stage and it has been an honor to meet him and compete with him.
What should look for in a gym? What should you avoid?
Atmosphere. The right atmosphere that will have you mentally in the zone when in the gym, the right workout partner, the right gym atmosphere, all can help cultivate the right attitude.

Where do you mainly workout?
Gym
Why? What are the pros and cons of working out there?
Powerhouse gym in Rancho Cordova has a large number of bodybuilders, powerlifters, competitive strong men, and mixed martial artists...working along side other athletes is very motivating.

Do you track your workouts (exercises, weight, reps, etc.)?
Yes
If so, how do you do it? Workout log, software program, etc.? Why do you do it this way?
I have a log on the forums that has been ongoing for over 2 years now.
My last blog was back in May when I watched my good friend, and now professional natural bodybuilder Alberto Nunez win his first show of that season. He went on to win his show in june, and july...all pro qualifiers, he walked away a PNBA, NGA, and WNBF Pro Bodybuilder. He then competed in a...

You have the drive and determination needed to build a competition ready physique and have done it naturally and I congratulate you. You have challenged yourself to do the best that you can do and the results have shown to be well worth it. What you are doing inspires many others. Remember: "You can be as great as you want to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, determination and drive and are willing to pay the price, you will do it!"
I am from Roseville and am thinking about competeing in an amature bodybuilding contest in the next 2 years. Do you know any local shows that I could go to to get an idea of what I should do to prepare?
