When I Started: Jul, 2004
How I Started: It was around July 2004 that a co-worker sparked again my interest in working out. In the beginning I was on high protein ~ low carb diet (I wanted to lose fat). Well, my performance in the gym was awful. I couldn't lift much weight and it was very frustrating (of course!: Where the hell were the carbs? Da** fad diets!). Since then I have learned more about fitness, NUTRITION and embrace all bodybuilding-related info around (and still learning!). I got hooked and will never stop.
Why I Love It: It helps keeping yourself healthy: physically and mentally. It's a great stress reliever. Love the PUMP!
How I Stay Motivated: My own progress (the mirror!); other people's fitness achievements.
BB Accomplishments:
Forum Signature: of course!: Where the hell were the carbs?

I wasn't doing things quite right. I decided to get more serious. I wasn't happy how I looked.

What supplements do you take immediately after your workout? Why?
Whey Protein + Glutamine + BCAA + other non-supp stuff: you have to start your muscles' recovering process right after your workout.
What supplements do you take immediately before your workout? Why?
BSN NO-Explode: it gives you focus, energy and great pumps.
What is the most dangerous weightlifting exercise? Why?
I don’t think there is a "most dangerous weightlifting exercise". Proper form and right poundage and you’re safe.
