Sex: Male
Age: 43
Location: Maine, United States
Occupation: Telecommunications + (20 year USN Vet)
Personal Website:
Gym: Medical Fitness Center nearby

When I Started: Mar, 2005
How I Started: After I lost 25 lbs from dieting in early 2005, I got sick of looking at "Skin and bones" and decided in March 2007 that I wanted to replace the body fat with added muscle by 'pumpin iron.
Why I Love It: It feels great, and I can see visable progress.
How I Stay Motivated: By feeling healthy, being around other people who share the same goals, and, of course,......the mirror.
BB Accomplishments: Still being able to "move" the next day.
Forum Signature: Success is sweet....but it usually has the scent of sweat about it.

I have actually put on 17 pounds since I have started really lifting. I am trying to get to 135 for now, without pilling it on all at once.

Thanks, I definitely will keep going. Not going to disappoint myself or anyone else at this point. Hahaha. Whenever I take a look at your avatars though I'm reminded of just how much hard work (in fact, for me I feel it's at least twice as hard) to get ripped again.
