When I Started:
2006
How I Started:
Bereavement. I needed something to keep me going, so I started cycling, lifting weight's & reading about weightlifting. I found BB.com on the web and after reading other people's profiles I decided to get a Personal Training qualification, which I have just completed.
Why I Love It:
It's been my life saver! I love it!!
How I Stay Motivated:
Seeing my body change and how much weight I can lift. Inspiration from all the other people on bb.com, especially from those that have overcome difficulties in their lives.

None as yet, but I hope to set up as a Personal Trainer in the near future.

Started a new 12 week programme this week. I am trying to lose fat, build muscle and increase my strength in my upper body.

Bench Press 4 x 10...
Still lots of energy after legs and lunges??? Lunges are killer btw. I must be soft, I did legs this morning and they are hurting already, I want a nap lol

Good to hear you're still going strong, look forward to the updates.I'm still pushing hard for an old man lol. Squatted 405 for 2 sets of 2 this morning, my best in quite some time. Still have to cut the crap out of my diet though.
