Personal Info And Background:
Real Name:
!CC L-Kewl
Sex:
Male
Age:
50
Location:
Virginia, United States
Occupation:
Personal Website:
Gym:
I work-out at Home and I swim once a week.
Gym Location:
When I Started:
Aug, 2006
How I Started:
Unlike most of the bio's I read on bb.com - I was never athletic, I was a band geek, and a darn good one !!!

I started really working-out for the first time at age 47. I was obese for years, working with various nutritionist for one or two appointments, but really floundering, looking for answers, not having any success, not knowing what to do.

When I did the treadmill I would never sweat and when I lifted weights I was never sore. I was lost.
Why I Love It:
I love the Adrenaline rush from lifting. I was shocked that my body changed, the more I lifted, dieted, and stuck with cardio the more changes I saw. I had no idea someone could transform their body so much.
How I Stay Motivated:
Being on BB.com motivates me, reading and seeing how people are so dedicated to their sport is extremely inspirational for me. Bodybuilders Rock !!!
BB Accomplishments:
1. Losing 60 lbs in 10 months and have kept it off for one year.

2. Having a before and after Reader Transformation article written about me in the April 2008 issue of Muscle and Body Magazine.

http://www.muscleandbodymag.c om/article.php?ArticleID=4938

3. Winning bb.com Transformation of the Week in the Over 40 Category !!!
