When I Started:
How I Started:
I've always been interested in bodybuilding since I was a kid and did very well in my younger days. Unfortunately as I got older I allowed myself to get away from it for several years now. Even though I've been to the gym off and on through the last few years, I've never gotten serious about it. And that's why I'm here... to get seriously back into it and set some new goals to reach.
Why I Love It:
Growing up through the years my reasons for loving bodybuilding have changed. When I was a kid I loved it for the big muscles... and as I became a young adult it was for the girls. But now that I'm older I love bodybuilding mostly because it makes me look and feel great... not to mention for the purpose of just being healthy. Bodybuilding gives me confidence and allows me to enjoy setting goals in, not only building muscle and burning fat, but also in strength training. It's really a big rush when you finally reach a weight that you didn't realize you could ever lift at one time.
How I Stay Motivated:
One way staying motivated works for me is looking at different muscle magazines and regularly keeping up with all the latest articles out there involving bodybuilding, supplements, and workout routines. Another is being part of websites like this one.
BB Accomplishments:
When I was younger I was able to achieve good results in building muscle and burning fat back in my twenties... which is something I intend to do presently. Today, one thing I have been able to accomplish is reach a bench max of 315lbs., which is higher than I've ever benched before.

Well here's a before photo of me... I know... NOT PRETTY! This was taken today on Jan. 07,2007... the day before I embark on my transformation journey beginning tomorrow morning.
Here I am today... what do you think? I know... more improvements are needed. And I'll keep improving, that's for sure.
My goal is to transform my body by Summer... and forever!
Goal (Long):
I've always been into bodybuilding and fitness, however through the years I've allowed myself to get off track physically and health-wise. Well now it's time for me to get back on track and get the physique I desire. Not only do I want to look and feel great, and be in the best shape of my life... but it's also important for me to be healthy as well... and stay that way. Through consistant good eating habits and exercise I know I will meet my goal. I've done it before... and I'll do it again!
Well... last week I used that time to rest and take a break while preparing to start another 12 week program this week. So far this week has been good and I look forward to making even more progress than I ever have. I plan on updating my photos every 4 weeks. Everyone take care and...
Here's my workout routine that I'll be starting on Monday Jan. 08, 2007. Because of my schedule, leaving the week free for the gym while having the weekends off works best for me.
Monday-Cardio, Chest, Bideps, and Abs.
Tuesday-Cardio, Quads, and Calves.
Wednesday-Cardio, Back, Triceps,...

Hey friend. As I am sure you have noticed, I have been off the scene lately. A job change in September, coupled with tendonitis in my right elbow, has kept me out of the gym and off my routine. I am starting back and will need all the support I can muster. Surf by my blog occasionally and check on my progress. If you see progress, let me know. If not, let me have it! Don’t hold back – if I am going to get where I want to be I will need your help. Steve
