Just got tired of the way I looked at age 22. Started working out on base at Eglin AFB then got a membership at Gold's Gym, Ft Walton Beach, Fl. This past year my best friend, Kari, convinced me to work out with her when I got back from my deployment. Been sticking with it since.

Even though I am not as good as I want to be, I love the way I feel doing my job when I am in shape. Carrying all my military gear or climbing a pole (lineman in the AF) is so much easier when I am in shape.
