Needed to gain some muscle mass to make myself a better sprinter and thrower in College. Track coach got me into the weight room and I have not looked back since.
Why I Love It:
It is my escape from all my stress and work - keeps me sane - and looking good is always a plus I guess ;)
How I Stay Motivated:
There is always room for improvement, always a push for that extra rep, those 5 more lbs that I know I can lift ... compete with yourself.
I want to get back to my peak shape ... grad school has cut out a lot of my training and dieting - now my goal is simple. Get back to a weight of at least 204-206 lbs. Once I get there, we will see if I want to go higher.
BB Accomplishments:
Weight lifting started: May 2001
Original weight: 122 lbs
Height: 6'0
As may be obvious by those stats alone - I am a hard gainer when it comes to muscle mass. Over the past 7 years I have trained and accomplished many goals as far as building muscle mass are concerned. Some of the stats below may help:
Heaviest weight achieved: 217 lbs at 8% body fat - August 2004
Heaviest cut weight: 204 lbs at 5.5 % body fat - January 2005
Depends if I am trying to make my stabilizer muscles groups stronger (lighter weight), or put on serious mass (heavier weight)

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
Screw celebs ... If I had their money, their trainers and their time ... I could look like anyone in a matter of weeks.
Look the best you can and be satisfied with it - this whole celeb hype is killing people.Screw celebs ... If I had their money, their trainers and their time ... I could look like anyone in a matter of weeks.

Aww that's awesome. I'm just behind you with fourteen years experience. My room is a bit shrine like as well. The guy is just stunning on so many levels!
Thanks! I don't know how to separate the links. I tried commas, semi-colons, spaces, etc. nothing worked. ideas?
Things are great! Decided I'm going to get ripped and enter the FLEX magazine bikini contest at the Olympia!
I'm doing well!...and like you, busy. Thanks for the nice pic comment, too! :) What's this I'm reading??? You're working 92 HOURS in ONE WEEK??? Yikes!
Hm, sleep deprivation? And I'm betting it's from studying? Well, can't help much there. If you were just having trouble with other stress/hormones/supplements (caffeine/creatine), I might have some answers. Let me know if you care to find out what helped me in those other situations.
Best!
