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. :)
I wanna be BIGGER! I also want better health care and education. AND lower gas prices. But mainly, I wanna get BIGGER!
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!
I posted in the forums, but thought I should post in a blog as well... here is my post:
I am having pain that feels very similar to shin splits in my forearms along the outside when I do bicep curls. Especially if I do them with a bar (ez or straight) rather than dumbells. It does not feel...
Hey there, thanx for the comment..very good improvements yourself! I can tell you're a hardgainer like myself too..good job on the physique..somehow your 'sunset' pic looks very familiar..hmmmm :)
How wonderful that you're not jealous! If you were jealous (even though we've already established that you're not) would you be jealous of the yellow eyed monster or crazy Clary?
It's the 16th not the 6th. And yes you can do that concoction. I like that better too. I've never noticed the after taste with tonic. Course I never noticed that I woke up naked face down in the gutter holding a Barbie doll either. Excellent avi!
See now you're talking. I just found out last night that Rage is from Denver! WTF?! He and other Coloradans are getting together on August 16 to, as they say, 'party.' I do not know what this means although I was invited. I will go but I'm scared to death. I think you, Stress, and Queen should come!! SERIOUSLY!!
Dude! Congrats! I was sooo much against having kids and my boy (tomorrow he is 2) made me a new man. I never knew what unconditional love really meant until I held him in my arms. Sure it is a exhausting job raising a kid but the rewards are amazing. Keep me posted. G.
