"In September of 2006 my bodybuilding dreams were stopped as i was rushed in to have an emergency lower back lamenectomy w/ a miscrodiscectomy as i had 3 herniated discs that were cutting off my nerves down my leg. At that point i thought it was all "

Personal Info And Background:
Real Name: Josh Biros
Sex: Male
Age: 26
Location: Streator, Illinois, United States
Occupation: Store Manager
Personal Website: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/trans69. htm
Gym: Bodyworks Gym and Tan
Gym Location: Streator, IL
When I Started: Dec, 1999
How I Started: I was a hefty 260lbs in high school and started working out, supplementing, and eating better and it became an addiction.
Why I Love It: Because its a sport that not everyone can do. Only an select few individuals can do what it takes to diet 4-6 months and put aside your personal life to attain a goal that only 1% of people in the world can do.
How I Stay Motivated: I have had 2 lower back surgeries. My motivation is that i don't ever want to be in a wheel chair. I stay motivated by seeing changes in the mirror weekly as well as by seeing others that i am helping train for a show look better and better by the day.

Goals:
Main Goal: Compete
Goal (Short): In September of 2006 my bodybuilding dreams were stopped as i was rushed in to have an emergency lower back lamenectomy w/ a miscrodiscectomy as i had 3 herniated discs that were cutting off my nerves down my leg. At that point i thought it was all
Goal (Long): When i got hurt i was 245lbs and 8% bodyfat. I was 3 weeks into training for a show and was sure that i would win the whole thing. I got hurt and i thought it was all over. Lying in a hospital bed and not knowing if you'll ever be the same is a traumatic experience. I never thought i'd return. I lose 30lbs in 3 days in the hospital and walked out a new person. A funny thing happens when you are lying there thinking about your future. I took off 5 months from training not thinking i'd ever get back into it. After helping others with shows and moving back to my hometown to train w/ my long time best friend, workout partner, and fellow bodybuilder Bob Widman, i decided i'd give another go. No i can't train like i used to, but with my knowledge i made it a challenge to myself to see what i could do w/ a new scheme of weights and diet. My goal is to again compete in April of 2008 and hopefully at a weight of 210 or more. Watch it happen!
Weight Goal: I want to GAIN 25 lb
Bodyfat Goal: 3%
Upcoming Contest: Mid Illinois

Glad for you, man, that you have put the trouble behind and are back to the gym. I have at least another couple of weeks until I can go back, following major surgery. It does suck.
