When I Started:
Jun, 1991
How I Started:
I was jumped twice in 1991 when i was 11 years old. I decided that that would never happen again.
Why I Love It:
When I move a physical obstacle in the gym that seemed insurmountable a week/month/year ago, I feel like I can overcome obstacles in my life that get in the way of me and my family.
How I Stay Motivated:
I have children who call me the Hulk. as of 12.2.08, my wife gave birth to twins, thus growing my family to seven. My wife sees me has her strongman. So, I workout to keep the image alive. I read Muscle Mag often, check out the latest articles and forums in Bodybuilding.com, and read books on fitness.

I've been powerlifting both competitively and as a way of lifting for years. I've been the 'working out on/off for years' type guy; so i have the size and I get compliments. However, I'm 30 now, and my wife just gave birth to our 4th and 5th children (twins). I want to build my endurance along with my strength and get down to a lean weight so that my children can still call be "The Hulk" and my wife can still call me "Superman" for years to come.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 30 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
10%

Maddi made incredible improvements in her healt and drips sexy like an I.V. The sexiness becomes blurred, though, when she posts an update on her blog- most of which is very insightful. She's a genuine contribution to the bb.com community.

Do you have a significant other?
Yes
How has bodybuilding and fitness helped or hurt your relationship?
Fitness has enhanced my relationship with my wife in that she looks at me with admiration for my body; and, I can tell she appreciates that I keep up with my appearance. There's obvious benefits to our sex life- I understanding the ramifications of strong cardivascular health and the rewards of increased vasodilation. This having been said, I make sure that my wife is never in want of satisfaction.
Fitness never damages a relationship. When your mate indicates in one way or another that you should scale back your time inthe gym or with involvement in any other fitness endeavour, the underlying concept is that not enough time is being spent with that mate. I make sure never to neglect my wife; when she says that I need to workout less I know she means, "sit down and talk with me". I will therefore maneuver my schedule so as to focus on considering my wife's needs.Fitness has enhanced my relationship with my wife in that she looks at me with admiration for my body; and, I can tell she appreciates that I keep up with my appearance.
