Overall Goal: Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize." I Corinthians 9:26-27
Fit Status:
swollen knee, leads me to smoke the upper-body!
Played NCAA D-I soccer. Strength coach required weight lifting: oly-lifting, plyometrics, and basic powerlifting. Tore ACL got fat(seriously) then got fixed and got ripped again.
Why I Love It:
I love crossfit. Crossfit gave me my life and physique back. Big shoutout to Coach Glassman.
How I Stay Motivated:
My life depends on it, and so do the lives of my brother soldiers. I'm depressed when I don't workout.
BB Accomplishments:
2nd Place in post Powerlifting Competition(Iraq) FEB '08
I used to be fat.
Going from 197 pounds to a much leaner 147 pounds. It was hard work and it hurt a lot, but a great life choice.
A 2:45 Fran and a 7:15 Helen.
Last CFT was 965. 175sp/365sq/425DL
RangerUpbitch updated Motivation Level from 10/10 to 8/10 and said: "My knee's a bit swollen from my long run the other day, but I'm hittin the upper-body hard." - 9:03 pm - Comment
I was 190 pounds. I don't think I have any with my shirt off because I was embarrassed I wasn't extremely obese, but I definitely had a layer of chubb all over. This was shortly after my knee surgery. I weighed 197 pounds at my heaviest.

Goal (Long):
I'm a certified Crossfit trainer and I want to establish a small business training a few clients. I will also want to maintain the free personal training I give to my most motivated Soldiers. Maintain what I have for performance right now. If I can make gains without losing or gaining muscle then so be it.
