got a set of dumbells for my 14th b-day.
2 pairs o 2.5kg, 2 pairs of 5kg and 2 more pairs of 8kg.
Used them after 8pm every day since then.
Why I Love It:
it gives definition.
in the past, if someone at my school expects me to lose at an arm wrestle or fight, cos he was told that i'm rather weak etc, i would prove him wrong and excel at it. Gotta love false assumptions and judgements back then. ;)
How I Stay Motivated:
my family used to think i was Idle and did little exercise, oh boy was they wrong!
rivalry and for my own health/benefit is what keeps me going. The burn and aches next day is a secondary bonus, hell, i either did too much or did enough!
Update 2 years after: Aids in parkour and gymnastics.
BB Accomplishments:
i have more muscles than ever before: i can feel extra 'bits and pieces'
aka. muscles, ligaments and tendons that wern't there 3 years ago.
Update 2 years after: my core is developed enough to maintain a 1 handed hand stand for 23 seconds, then round off and snap up a quick backflip. Ain't that pure progress? Can arial, kick the moon, press up handstand 20 reps, the list goes on.

Saw your comment on a thread about height...hope you take a look at JamerJay who was 6'and 125 at age 17 and what he's turned into....he's currently the #1 most frequently viewed profile. Looks like you could turn your height into quite an advantage.
