Fit Status:
Did you know glutathione is the most powerful, prevalent antioxidant in your body?
I started the summer of my Freshman year to put on some weight ( I was not really that serious during HS) but then late in my 20's I got the bug and then around 1995 I decided to become a PT and the rest is history! Around 1978 I fractured my back in a motorcycle accident and the doctors said I would never be able to lift again, so out of spite thru study and research I rebuilt my back and today my lower back is stronger then it was before. Now I am a fanatic about Weight training and Health.
Why I Love It:
The feeling of intensity and how it leaves you pumped, the fact that it relieves stress, man thier is so many reasons to lift and lift heavy especially as you Age!
Look out World The Arizona Oak is heading out!
How I Stay Motivated:
MaxGXL's Patent Pending Formula Dramatically Increases Intracellular GSH.
MaxGXL provides the proper nutrients needed to promote the body's own ability to manufacture and absorb glutathione. MaxGXL also aids in liver support, thus helping the liver to function as the main production site and storehouse for glutathione.

"I am the man responsible for who I am. When I look in the mirror each day, I stare my creator in the eyes. I am responsible for what I will become, I am accountable for what I will or will not accomplish. I believe in myself and God, and I bow to no man and my only critic of any consequence to me is the one that walks that mile in my shoes.
BB Accomplishments:
none yet but they are comming.

This guy is amazing, and I want to be as graceful on stage as he is. For a 50 yr old to get started is really hard and it makes it so much harder not knowing, or having anyone to talk to or to model after, I get excited again just looking at someone like him that is my size and even a little older but it tells me I can do this.
How has bodybuilding and fitness helped and/or changed your family life?

Its amazing to me the number of people that dont like healthy motivated and focused people.
You hear it all the time " Oh I exercise or I want to lose this amount of weight,then they sit at thier desk and eat candy all day or go to Burger king for lunch and eat cheeseburgers and french fry's. Then they have the nerve to talk behind her back and say we have an attitude and are to good to socialize with them ( what because my wife doesnt want to be a fat ass and eat at a fast food place, my view and I have told her this Fuck them thier opinion doesnt count, just use thier jealousy to motivate ) Yes my wife and I are closer now, more than ever.
