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.
BB Accomplishments:
2nd place- 2008 Granite State Strength Challenge (novice)
(my first strongman competition)
3rd place- 2009 Granite State Strength Challenge (HW Open class)

What supplements do you take immediately after your workout? Why?
Creatine and whey protein with simple carbs. The carbs cause an insulin spike which facilitates creatine uptake.

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!
