When I Started:
Jun, 1999
How I Started:
I was tired of being a small guy and people not noticing me. People would cut in front of me as if I wasn't standing there. I bought a small Weider Gym set and started in my garage. I couldn't even bench 100 lbs when i started and was curling about 20 lbs dumbells. Got a subscription to Muscle Fitness and started to learn proper form and some great building workouts, oh yea, I was eating 7 large meals a day. That nearly killed me. I started to get enough confidence to actually go to a gym and workout. At the gym is where I met a lot of people who help me change my routine and pushed me beyond my wildest dream of lifting. Joined Gold's Gym and saw the big boys in town, that deflated me, but now I am known by them and hope to be up there with the big power house guys.
Why I Love It:
I love the pump!!!Just the way a person can change their body so much is awesome.
How I Stay Motivated:
The support of friends and seeing the way I can manipulate my bodies muscles!
BB Accomplishments:
Going form 120 lbs to 200 lbs
Forum Signature:
Life is all about what you make of it. You can change everything, you have to desire it and live it.

Powderhouse Productions, TV producer for major networks, NEEDS TEXAS BODY BUILDERS. Our next show will talk about artificial muscles and we'd like to talk about them with a few body builders around to show real muscles at their finest. If you are interested please contact us. We will be shooting November 23rd or 24th in the Dallas area. It should be an interesting shoot and great exposure for all involved. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sure you can. There's an old adage (I'm old, so I know old adages): "Whether you think you can or you can't, you're always right."

Thanks man. You look awesome. Read your profile and you remind me of me. I was only 140lbs out of high school and was tired of being "pushed around". I earned my amateur-pro card last year and i use my new found respect to inspire people to become better. Keep up the great work and i'll keep uploading the vids.
