My younger sister died after a car accident when I was still playing full time in Rock bands. Not a real healthy lifestyle. I decided it was time to get healthy and strong again. After watching my sister on a respirator for three days, before they pulled the plug, I decided to go into healthcare to ease suffering. I myself was in a car accident on October 24, 2006. I was rear ended while stopped in a construction zone by a car that was hammered by a F350 pickup going 65 mph. They had to cut the guy that hit me out of his car. 75 doctor visits later and I am trying HARD to make a comeback. I love Hard Rock...hence the name RockHard...although some people think this means something else. :)
Why I Love It:
I love the pump and feel after I workout....the endorphin rush and the energy. I love symmetry over size...people who just work the chest and abs...don't look right...you need to work the whole package.
How I Stay Motivated:
Look at fit women and appreciate how hard they work to look good. It's the least I can do to give them something good to look at too. Live healthy and strong for my children. They are still young and I want to be there for them and do things with them. I work developing clinical tests at Mayo Clinic (e.g. transplants, Lupus, kidney disease, etc...). Many people aren't as lucky as me...they motivate me to stay healthy and do what I can to help them.
BB Accomplishments:
Still able to lift more than most guys much younger and able to run several miles at a rapid interval pace. Need to ramp it up again..love words of encouragement.

God Bless America...thank those who fight for our freedom!
Goal (Long):
After my sister died, I went on a complete makeover plan. I ate healthier, starting lifting weights, and ran almost everyday. I was lean and mean in a very short time. I will get to the level again. With our new fitness center at my workplace, I have state of the art equipment to train on. It's a real good time to set some goals for myself. I am an avid golfer, trained in Tae Kwon Do, and coach youth sports, including football and baseball, and girl's high school ice hockey!
Description: This is our new workout facility at Mayo Clinic. Opened September 4th. It is state-of-the-art. Simply amazing! If you are ever here, ask for me and I will show you around. Timbo
thank you very much for stopping by Timbo! I bought a tripod because by BF wants me to send pics every day, so hopefully I will overcome my shyness through this process. I hope you had a great day!
