My family has always nurtured the arts and athleticism/fitness...we grew up going on family 'tennis vacations' which were a blast! I've always thrived on jogging (through wooded trails in NE TX), swimming (mostly fly, back sprints in competition), and martial arts (mostly N. Shaolin kung fu) as my staples, but recently I've been trying out weight-lifting and have loved it so far.
Why I Love It:
Pushing limits/breaking barriers/growing/evolving/strengthening/fortifying...that whole "shabang" ; it recapitulates on some of the more brilliant goals that we can have in our human experience. Man is at his best when he is building and improving.
How I Stay Motivated:
1. A burning internal drive to be a constantly evolving balance of mind/body/spirit.
2. Inspiration from other badass individuals ;)
BB Accomplishments:
Every drop of sweat is an accomplishment.
But no, I don't compete or anything. Perhaps one day!
My long term goal is to evolve and grow in balanced mind/body/spirit. This site addresses chiefly the "body" aspect of that triquetra...but I wouldn't be surprised if I grow in mind and spirit here too.
Medium-short term goal is to gain 20 lbs of toned muscle. With heavy swimming, running, and martial arts, I've always been on the thin side...but now it's time to add a little mass. Then will come the toning.
Thanks for the support guys and good luck w/your own goals.
Weight Goal:
I want to GAIN 20 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
7%
