When I Started:
Feb, 2009
How I Started:
I have been working out off and on since 2000 but never putting it all together (diet & exercise). In Feb 2009 I finally decided that I needed to make this a lifestyle change. I was ready to put that work in!!
Why I Love It:
I love the energy you get from working out. My body looks and feels so much better when i am consistantly working out. Its hard work but the results are the ultimate reward. Plus I like the compliments I get.
How I Stay Motivated:
I just look at my pictures when I was 240 lbs and I know I never want to be that person again. Besides that I love free weights and I have learned to appreciate cardio. Seeing my body transform week to week keeps me motivated.
BB Accomplishments:
Nothing yet but i just turned 30 in August and i am in the best shape of my life....I'm just getting started!! I guess I can say I lost almost 40 lbs and went from 23% to 7% body fat in 7 months.
Continue to gain lean muscle and improving definition while keeping my bodyfat under 10%.
Goal (Long):
When I started in Feb 09 my long term goals were to get down to 210 lbs and 15% body fat. I wanted to get a six pack and really shape and define my body. As time went on I started to realize that my potential was limitless if I worked hard and stayed dedicated. Now my goal is to maintain my body fat in the single digits while increasing my lean mass. I want to put on about 10 more pounds of muscle. I also want to get stronger and increase my bench to 405. I want to be a BEAST by next summer. I LOVE fitness and nutrition. I want to share my passion to possibly help others.
yo man, greats points of encouragement and great progress yourself. I agree on the fact that hanging with positive leads to positive and i appreciate your words of re-ackowledgement. Lets keep it tight for the queen city and get big for 2010 son....LETS GET IT!!!!
