Waytootall

Overall Goal:  "There's no point in having all these muscles if you don't use 'em!"

Fit Status:  Finally cracked the top 3 as a heavyweight! It qualifies me for nationals, but I've got more work to do first.

Motivation Level: 10/10

Male
Age:
38
Location:
New Hampshire, United States
Occupation:
decorative painter and personal trainer
Personal Website:
Gym:
home gym & Best Fitness
Gym Location:
my basement & Nashua
When I Started:
1987
How I Started:
My brother is 16 years older than me. He brought me to this sweaty little dungeon when I was 13. It took a couple more years of maturity for the bug to really sink it's teeth in, but I've never NOT worked out since.
Why I Love It:
The way it makes me feel. The way it makes others react to me.
How I Stay Motivated:
Several things keep me motivated. 1. the mirror doesn't lie 2. the appreciative looks I see my wife giving me when she thinks I'm not looking 3. when my sons talk about "how strong daddy is" 4. most recently, the great feedback I get from Bodyspace and all the other members. My thanks to those of you who have stopped by and left a comment or started a conversation. I'm loving making new friends.

2nd place- 2008 Granite State Strength Challenge (novice)

My new gym was finally delivered and assembled on Wednesday! I purchased a Keys Fitness 1/2 cage with a smith machine and high/ low cable tower. See the photo of it in my gallery. One of the coolest features (I think) is that the multi- angle bench I bought to go with it, connects via a cable...

Thanks VERY MUCH for the compliment! I wore the kilt once on a dare from a good friend and really liked it so I had one made in Black Watch as I am not even a wee bit Scottish. I rented the Bonnie Prince Charlie to wear to a Scottish-themed formal event that occurs here once a year. Real men wear kilts!
