High School:
When I Started:
Feb, 2006
How I Started:
I decided it was time to make a change in my life. I was always skinny & not very athletic growing up. When I graduated high school, I weighed somewhere aroud 130 lbs. at 5'9". I eventually got up to about 135. A few years ago, I lost a lot of weight due to some extra-curricular activities... I'm not sure what my lowest weight was, but I'm sure it was below 115 lbs. After turning some things around & getting rid of one particularly powerful addiction, I started gaining weight again -- simply from eating regularly. It was then that I joined the gym. Worked with a personal trainer for the first couple of months to get a basic understanding of equipment and exercise. Fell in love with lifting! Plan on doing it as long as I'm physically able!
Why I Love It:
Bodybuilding is an outlet for me -- I get to watch my body change & grow while relieving stress. I feel better & look better!
How I Stay Motivated:
Watching someone make a change for the good in their life motivates me to continue! It reminds me of why I started in the first place. Seeing progress is a huge motivator. People on bb.com and work out buds can be great motivation.
BB Accomplishments:
Going from 140lbs and 14%bf to 155lbs and 8%bf in a year... I think that should count. :)

Goals:
Main Goal:
Gain Muscle
Goal (Overall):
To bulk up as much as possible through the fall and winter.
Goal (Long):
I need to see results. I'm pushing myself to see change. I'm eating better and eating more. I'm lifting heavier, never missing a day at the gym, and getting good rest. My goal is to gain some solid muscle, naturally. Generally speaking, I don't want to be big. However, relatively speaking, I want to be big for me -- I don't know how much I need to gain, but I know how I want to look. I'm thinking I need to gain about 20 lbs to see what I'm looking for. I'M READY TO GROW!
Weight Goal:
I want to GAIN 30 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
7%

What is your favorite cardiovascular exercise? Why?
I'm not a fan of running because it makes my joints ache. If I do cardio, it's most likely on a bike or elliptical machine.

What is your cardio exercise plan?

So my goal for the past 4 months or so has been to gain 15 lbs of lean muscle and get down to 8% body fat.  My body fat has been listed as 12% because that's what it was last time I checked, but it's been quite a while since then.  I recently purchased bf callipers (?) with a built in...

Swimming is the best..total body. I started to do cardio again but just like 3x/week for like 30 min..mainly just felt like something was missing. Routine didnt feel complete. How much size/weight are you looking to put on till spring?

I feel like once I achieve my 20" arms they will be the foundation in which I work around. I mean I am working all major muscle groups now. But I will focus more on those muscle groups once my arms get to the size I want. Right now main goal is 210 then cut. half year goal is to attain the 20" guns. Getting big arms is hard work. Chest and shoulders come natural for me. I work them for 2 hours and they results are solid.
