When I Started:
Mar, 2009
How I Started:
Took two years off from the gym. Being an ectomorph, I tend to lean down when taking time off. Looking forward to hitting the weights and packing on some muscle mass again.
Bodyweight as of 02/01/2009 was 160 lbs.
Why I Love It:
Great confidence booster and all around way of both feeling & looking healthier.
How I Stay Motivated:
I set small goals and keep a workout log to track my progress. I also take my bodyweight and waist measurement on the first day of each week. Every other week I take full body measurements to keep track of my progress and to ensure i'm still gaining in the right places.
Do you track your workouts (exercises, weight, reps, etc.)?
