When I Started:
Feb, 2005
How I Started:
I got hooked onto it in college.
Why I Love It:
The mood enhancement, the motivation, the changes in myself I can see and feel. Just the feeling I get when working out and afterwards. Beta-endorphins you know. I'll get my IFBB procard in about 10 years lol.
But in reality, working out is the greatest stress reliever in the world. You tend to forget about all of the bs when you're under a couple of hundred pounds of weight.
"The Iron never lies..."
How I Stay Motivated:
All of my ppl on bodyspace. When I see the pics and msgs of my friends on here sticking with the program, I'm compelled to stick with it too.

I am my own motivation. 24/7. Other than that here are some things that motivate me:

1)Muscle and Fitness Magazine
2)Music
3)Increased Strength and Endurance
4)Great Stamina
5)People who stare
6)Hypertrophy, Improved Cardiovascular development(The Pipes)
7)The Mirror.

Have Faith in God.
BB Accomplishments:
16 weeks, 8 bulking and 8 cutting. 8% BF Loss 233 to 260 to 242lbs.
Forum Signature:
I'm committed, its my lifestyle.
Every choice you make is either advancing your progress towards your goals or getting in the way of them.

Have faith in God.

You know me always traning. Right now is crunch time and I have to be ready for a show in August. I'm hitting it like a madman and trying to get that last little size before the cardio takes over completely. Replace some of your starchy carbs with fiberous carbs and you'll see better results from your cardio. I know it sucks but it works.

Hi James, thanks for the friend request. Good luck with your training and I agree wholeheartedly with your fit status!

Yeah...the Atrophex was okay. They said it helped maintain more mass while getting shredded. I did nget better results without using any fat burners at all...str8 CLA and clean eating w/ my training worked best. I would say that Hydroxycut Hardcore worked best if you REALLY want to use domthing, but CLA everday does the job naturally and keeps you lean without bloating you or giving you the "shakes".
