I got started with working out around six months post high school graduation. As a hockey player, I felt the need to be stronger, faster and tougher. A friend on my team was kind enough to show me the ropes at the gym and he kicked my scrawny butt and since then, I have not looked back!

For me, working out is an escape from everything else going on in my life. Im a very generous and caring individual, but there are times where I need to focus on me, and the gym allows me do accomplish this. The pump I feel, the changes I witness increase my desire to improve myself both physically, and improve myself as a person. The most important aspect of the gym for me though, has been the work ethic, drive and positive attitude I have learnt and have traslated to other aspects of my life. There is no negative to being a healthier, happier person!
