Down to single digit body fat before summer is even here. Nice to be ahead of the game and be able to stay in maintenance mode.

Background
I was blessed with bad genetics in the way of a slow metabolism so I started to work out and eat clean to try and turn it around.
It is a great stress reliever most of all. I also enjoy the social aspect of the gym. It's good to see and talk to people with similar goals and aspirations. When you miss a week here and there your buddies give you a hard time and create a conscience.

His ability to find balance in life. Juggling family, work and exercise. Nothing is impossible as is shown by Jim Britain, I believe. I fall into the exact same category of juggling. Albeit my motivation is on the comeback, I need that little extra tweak to put me on top.
