Been doing it on and off for a few years now. I think I first lifted a weight in the school gym. I remember my mother said I could never be muscular, so that set me on a path to prove her wrong.
Why I Love It:
I love keeping fit. Enjoy surfing, basketball, Muay Thai,mma, bjj, boxing, yoga, and gym. Obviously I'm not really focused on bodybuilding as such (too much hard work) but I love to train and keep fit. I believe variety is the spice of life. All my friends are at the gym and I often can't wait to put down the books or get out of work so I can socialise and work hard at the gym.
How I Stay Motivated:
Seeing the progress that other people make definately motivates me. I try not to take it too seriously, but I do get a little competitive sometimes.
"The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights." Muhammed Ali.
Why I like this video: I remember watching UFC 1&2 as a 17 year old and being amazed by their athleticism and physique. It was not until 6 years later that I started learning some of what I saw in these videos.

Your also intelligent, you took the time in reading my profile, not much people do that so thanks for that and yes everything comes with time and patience and yes a balance. Your pictures certainly tell of your story and your passion for lifting and staying fit i find that inspiring.
Hello mate, im well thanks. I want to say thank you for the support it means alot to me. Ive found quite a number of folks on here that are just like yourself, kind and supportive of the others getting fit and staying in shape for lifting, i find that incredible, so thanks for that. I think your right about it being difficult in the beginning, im hurting all over, being a newbie to this all though the end result will be rewarding.
Mate from seeing your pics youve come a long way and put a good deal of dedciation into your passion, good for you. Gives me something to believe in seeing thta im a newbie in this field.
Stay fit, stay strong mate.
Cheers!

G'day,
How is your surfing mate? How is home? I am fine, had a very cold christmas. We were hiking Smoky Mountains in -10 degrees weather. It was very slippery and icy trails made my butt meet the ground. Everything is in the righ place.
Take care this new year 2009.

Have belt exam this coming 13th, so I'm training my kata and kihon very hard, mixed with lots of light weight training for explosiveness. BJJ is a lot of fun trying to block the opponent moves while trying to full him into your move while controlling your breadth not to telegraph your movements, lots of fun and strategy. Enjoy!
