Honestly, I just got tired of being FAT! Having all that extra weight on me was causing so many health problems. I was at a point in my life were I needed to change everything. It took time but I finally got to where I am now and love it! I have been in and out of the gym since 1989 but it wasn't until I finally decided to compete in 2012 that I started taking things seriously.

I love the feeling of getting bigger and stronger. Being lean feels as good as it looks! I love being able to train the way I do, I feel amazing in the gym.
