When I Started:
Jan, 2004
How I Started:
I started working out in highschool as preperation for wrestling/football/gym I did not eat right at all and weighed around 140 lbs when I graduated in 2003. Around 2004 I was tired of being scrawny and began working out and eating better. By 2005 I was around 168 lbs and very lean. After two really bad injuries and an automobile accident set me back I am back at the game again.
Why I Love It:
When I don't work out I feel weak, get depressed, lethargic, and get sick often. After working out I sometimes feel "high", and besides the obvious health benefits, working out simply makes me feel good physically and socially.
How I Stay Motivated:
Nearly all my friends do bodybuilding or work out in some way. Besides that, seeing my body improve and feeling my strength increase is a big motivator. Once I get in the rhythm of going to the gym and eating right it builds on itself.
BB Accomplishments:
Most recently I gained around 10 lbs from January 08-February 08 (edit: now gained over 22 lbs since jan-april) I learned a lot about proper diet and supplement intake as well as pushing myself further. I'm now stronger and bigger than I have ever been.

Tweak my nutrition and workout regime in order to cut down for summer.
Goal (Long):
After exceeding my goal of 10 lbs by march 2008 I am psyched that I now weigh in around 195-200 lbs. After getting out of physical therapy for my foot I would love to burn off some fat and really get my cardio routine up in order to be a real athlete come Vegas time. I hope to run at least 2 miles a day 3 days a week for one month, as well as lean out my diet.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 1 lb

What type of injury was it? How long were you injured? How did you recover?
Messed up my shoulder pretty bad. I was injured for 3 or more months. I recovered by taking time off and I went back one day it was miraculously healed.
