Saddleback College Attended 2009 to Present Mission Viejo, California United States
High School:
Aliso Niguel High Attended 2005 to 2009 Aliso Viejo, California United States
When I Started:
Aug, 2005
How I Started:
I've always had autism since I was diagnosed with it at 2 years, 11 months. I had little to no social skills, had few to no friends, had been into fights, been picked on and called names. And I certainly was never exactly "lean", but I was a skinny child. But around 11, I was out of shape and fat, until I lost weight, looking thinner at 13. Then I've always wanted to looked muscular, huge and ripped since I took an interest in bodybuilding. I've trained hard, ate a lot to get huge, and was always looking up information on Bodybuilding.com. That helped me learn more about bodybuilding as well as tremendously improve my social skills. Then as I got huge, I got pretty damn soft. And I've tried several times to lose body fat, but since I usually ate whatever I want, it's made it even harder. In fact, the second semester of junior year, I was 230 and 20.9% body fat! After the end of it, I gained 5 pounds of muscle, but my body fat remained the same. After junior year ended, I tried to gain more muscle and lose fat at the same time doing cardio and weight training at the South Coast YMCA, but since I still never ate properly, exercise alone was little help to me. Eventually I got so sore for training 2-3 hours day whenever I went there, and eventually lost strength, I gave up working out; I took a sabatical. Because of that, I lost weight, but I lost muscle. Early senior year, I was at 217 at my lightest (still out of shape), but after several months, I eventually gained all the weight back(went up to 240 by the end of senior year). I got a new set of weights at that time and used them a little consistently. I planned this before graduation: after I graduate, I knew I had to get back to the gym. But I wanted faster results, so I bought some supplements to shape me up. I looked a little better because of them, but I still had a very long way to go. Eventually, all of them were gone, and it was harder for me to stay in the gym and keep eating better. But I knew that I didn't want to go to college looking in that same kind of shape I was all 4 years of high school and before; I wanted to become my best possible.
Why I Love It:
I love to keep building and building my physique. I just get bigger and better every week. And with learning more about bodybuilding, I get even better.
How I Stay Motivated:
I go to the gym like I'm going to compete.
BB Accomplishments:
So far, all I've accomplished was becoming bigger, leaner and stronger, so now I am wearing size XXL shirts.
Forum Signature:
Freaky size means nothing if you aren't freaky shredded as well. So eat clean, train hard and smart, and use dietary supplements for faster results.
Want to keep gaining symmetry, size, shape, proportion, and strength while losing fat.
Goal (Long):
Now that I've gotten much stronger, and bigger and in better shape than I never thought I could possible, I want to keep on improving everything, getting down to 6% body fat, weigh over 260 pounds, and lift weights I have never been able to lift before. With my full dedication, discipline, drive and determination, I will meet those goals in no time flat.
I found this member to be an inspiration because this member showed that despite having an physical problems and/or other disabilities, you can overcome them with dedication and hard work.
What type of nutrition plan are you currently following? Give full details.
Right now, I'm eating 5-6 small meals, some with brocolli and sometimes a couple carrots. I eat those small meals with at least 25 grams of protein and moderate fats and carbs (like patatos).
