When I Started:
Jan, 1989
How I Started:
In 1988, I came out of the police academy at 160 lbs. 6 months later I was in street fight where the suspect body slammed me on the ground and nearly choked out the K-9 dog. The injury sustained from the fight, caused me to rethink my fitness needs. I begain lifting soon after that. Years later I was at 200lbs, with a lot of muscle mass. I never had to fight again, during my years on the streets.
Why I Love It:
Leaving the PD and I no longer play competitive sports, the gym has become my playing field. I strive to become more fit than people half my age. Working out has helped me with the daily stresses at the office.
How I Stay Motivated:
1. I keep a business card from a former vendor rep at my desk. This person was 37 years old, worked a stressful job, and didn't take care of himself. He had a massive heart attack and left a 6 year old son. I have a 7 year old son and I need to be alive for him.
2. I am a PTSD survivor.
BB Accomplishments:
Because my of my lack of exercise and eating habits in 1999, I was pushing 225 lbs. As of April/08, I am at 187.8 lbs. I went from a size 38 pants to a 32.
I've added core exercises to my routine and I can see the difference in my abs.
I gotta tell ya -- putting up pictures and checking in here is a big motivation. I just put up a bunch yesterday and I can't wait to get in the gym. What's your story?
hi i read your profile and i want to be a cop when im old enough. im about to start college and i just had a quick question. do you think i should get my bachelors degree in criminal justice then jump into it or get the degree, get some military experience and then hit the academy
everybody have up and downs but some people have falls that are very hard to recover. I stopped train couple of time but now I come back with avengence as well as I doing squash at the same time.
