I started off by watching my Dad and other adults and it sparked my love affair with iron. Throughout my adolescence I trained heavily with weights as a way to combat obesity, though, unfortunately, with little supervision and proper structure. As an adult, I learned of nutrition, supplementation, and how to transform my body, though I still battled with high weight ranges. Now, after a 3 year layoff in which I've amassed 75 extra pounds, I know its time for me to return to a level of fit I once attained, then thoroughly smash that level beyond any current realm of possibility in my mind.

I love knowing I can positively affect the appearance of my body. As much as poor eating habits can negatively affect me, my hard work in the gym (and in the kitchen) can have such a positive result.
