Tired of being the skinny guy. I want something better for myself.
Achievement isn't about how much you can bench, how high you can jump, how good your abs look, how many points you can score in a game, or how many awards you can win in a lifetime. Achievement is about striving to better yourself, little by little, each day. It's about growing spiritually, mentally, physically, emotionally, and socially. It's about overcoming adversity while practicing humility. It's about living for God, loving each other, and allowing yourself to be a light of encouragement to those around you.
Why I Love It:
Great stress reliever. My body is the only thing I have some sort of control over, so I want to try to look and feel the best that I can. It's pretty cool when people I haven't seen in a while notice a difference.
How I Stay Motivated:
FAITH. I know I can do nothing without Jesus. He's my only motivation to live a life of fullness and greatness.
Seeing other friends and family let themselves go down a path and give up. I want to live an example for others, not just physically, but in every way.
Feeling good. THE PUMP! The soreness the next day, knowing you really pushed yourself on that last workout. Staying healthy. Knowing that when I'm in my 40s and 50s (and 90s, dare I say) I'll be able to do the things I enjoy today. Wanting to look better for myself. Getting compliments from others. Seeing results.
BB Accomplishments:
None......yet. I'd eventually like to be a fitness model to earn some extra $$ to help pay for medical school. Maybe in a year?

This is me before I got serious about 3 weeks ago. Wanting to bulk up without gaining too much fat. Going to stick to a good diet and lift like none other. There's much back fat to be lost...
165 lbs. relaxed. still need more size. the definition will come later. ok, now stop drooling.
This man is dedicated to the sport and to helping others. This guy is my first inspiration to change the way I lived my life. Last March I was searching for tips on nutrition and lifting on youtube.com and found his videos. Very inspirational. He made it seem doable...so I did it and haven't looked back since. Thanks Josh! YOU ROCK!
Her dedication, charisma, encouragement, BIG HEART, perseverance, knowledge about life and the life of bodybuilding, her winning smile, her humor, and her FRIENDSHIP. She knows what it takes to be healthy, live a fulfilling life, and have fun all the while. An example for all men & women of all ages. No task is too big/too small for her 5'2" frame. She is a firm foundation. She is a gentle voice when you feel like giving up. She is a shining star. A glimmer of hope. :)
I've decided to switch my routine up again, so I'm giving German Volume Training a try again. I think I'm ready for it this time, and hope to keep with it for at least 6 weeks, shooting for 8 weeks. I kinda worked with the some of the routines online and modified the workouts with some...
Haha, thanks a lot bro. Glad to hear it. How's your training coming along? Just made a new thread that you can stop by if you'd like that I will try to keep updated with my progress at the end of each month and talk a little about my training and dieting and such. http://forum.bodybuilding.com/ showthread.php?t=117295221
