Background
When I Started: Dec 2001
HOW I STARTED:
Until the age of 21 I was 130 lbs, looking like pure hell with skin and bones.. One day I stepped in the gym and from that moment on, I never stopped going..After a couple years of not having a clue of what I was doing and constantly overtraining..I began to expand my knowledge with Health and Fitness Magazines, such as Musclemag and Flex..I took Workout & Nutritional info and put them to use..I began to see results immediately. I then expanded my knowledge with personal training documents etc..Eventually I found Bodybuilding.com and Bodyspace and found this to be a great motivator in what I was hoping to accomplish.. Today I have reached my all time goal of helping other individuals stay away from mistakes I made..I want to get you off on the right foot with training and not waste several years as I did.. I want to give Bodybuilding.com and the supplement line of Cellucor for giving me the opportunity to take training to a whole new level with the motivation and the supplements offered.. Thanks for all your support, stay focused, motivated and always looking for new goals!
WHY I LOVE IT:
How could you not love walking into a gym, taking control of massive lbs of iron and fighting it on a daily basis, when what you get in return is a better body, better self discipline and a drive that can't be broken.. The iron is my best friend!

My Workout Program View My Full Workout Program
I always change around my training style to keep the body shocked and new changes always coming.
My workouts are never the same for more than 5 weeks time. I am constantly coming up with new routines to always shock the body into new growth or new fat burning progression.
One can't use the same workout every single day, week after week or year after year and expect to keep progressing.
The body needs shocked quite often so it doesn't adapt to what you are doing.
If you are in a plateau period, simply switch your workout up and watch your body start to change again.

My Supplement Program View My Full Supplement Program
I personally think supplements play about a 5% roll in how one can progress, as eating plays the highest roll, bringing 80% of ones progress
One of the easiest ways to get in the protein you need per day, whether you are cutting or bulking is to use a protein, I simply choose BSN Syntha 6 or Dymatize Elite XT or Gourmet.
Those both have casein and whey protein in them, which can benefit you for day time or night time use.
I use a pre workout and for that I will always choose one of the following, Cellucor C4 or Cellucor NO Xtreme.
I use a fat burner when cutting hard and that choice is Cellucor Super HD, it stands above all other fat burners I have tried.
Finally, a multie vitamin should be used and I use Optimum Opti-men on a daily basis.

Keys to Shredding Fat!
Posted in Other : Sep 27, 2011 2:00pmYou find many people today thinking that if they go to the gym 4-6 days a week and spend multiple hours in there that they are going to see these amazing results.
What people don't understand is that, in my opinion, what you eat brings you at least 80% of your progress.
So if you go in the gym and bust your butt for an hour or 2 and then you don't eat something healthy or you go out and eat garbage, then you have just wasted that time in the gym.
Many people also think it is wise to drop body fat by not eating more than 2 times a day...

Posted in Training : Aug 28, 2011 9:02amI am putting together several video series on how to help others improve on training a body part.
This 1st one is designed to help out individuals with back training.
Swolen pecs on Tuesday
Posted in Training : Aug 03, 2011 3:29pmTuesday we put in 110% intensity into killing the pectorals.
I'll tell you what we did below.
Floor presses with 120 in chains.
We hit 5 rounds of floor presses after warm ups, I went up to 175 plus the chains for a final of 2 reps.
Westburgh hit that weight for 1 rep.
Char did 120 plus the bar and 10 lbs for 2 reps.
We focused on pausing and leaving our elbows on the floor for a count of 1 before pressing back up.
Move 2 was incline dbell presses for 4 sets:

I love how you never sugarcoat anything lol Always keeping it real Steve hahah. Yeah, idk man, I was a bit confused as well but then thought to myself that things happen for a reason and shouldn't dwell on it. I worried because I thought that not placing would hurt my motivation, but it was the complete opposite. If anything, not placing in the contest gave me more reason to improve and to be on top of everything else I do. So it's all good.

I am doing very well. I pushed through last week but I am going to take your advice from a couple of weeks ago and take this week off. I am so behind in my school preparation and have been putting things off that are job related. I am a little anal about being prepared so I know the added stress due to not being as prepared as I like is causing some motivation problems.
