I began serious weight training my freshman year of college when I began training for my throwing events for track and field: shotput, hammer throw, discus, and the weight throw
Why I Love It:
I love pushing myself further when I have never lifted a new weight. The feeling of accomplishment after lifting a heavier weight previously "unliftable" is just amazing to me.
How I Stay Motivated:
I stay motivated by knowing that the gym is a balance center for me, I have gone 3 weeks without going to the gym when things got hectic, and when i forced myself to make time for the gym again, it made my life so much simpler to function again, so I stay motivated by knowing it helps me stay sane!

What do you think about people who "grunt" loudly while working out? Do you do it?
That they are probably lifting some heavy weight, or really burnin themselves out with light weight
Have recently started training with my old throwing coach again and am So totally stoked about it. I have been so busy that i was unsure if I could manage to make time for it, but you know what, hell with it! I can make time. My goal is to qualify for USATF in indoors for the weight throw, and...
Thank you so very much Zach for the very kind words and support in the contest! I need it! I haven't made any of the rounds yet, this is my last opportunity - you can vote everyday if you feel so inclined. I couldn't help but to notice your height! I am 6'1" without the shoes, and 6'7" with - we could take turns looking up at one another, lol!
Even tho I had chicken on thanksgiving, I am beyond grateful in post blackfriday cheer to have you in my life to keep me motivated. You've hit the sexy benchmark, keep on working your way to beauty of a god.
Hi Zach,
Like the new photos! so I am thinking my next set of photos will feature a garter belt, but I thought I better get your seal of approval first. (lol)
