I was Raised in a somewhat broken home, without anyone to look up to. So naturally I drifted in and out of crowds with no real meaning to my life. I never once cared about my health or how I looked. Of course I was always that kid who got picked last to play any sports. It wasn�t until I was a freshmen in high school that I realized something had to change. A few kids told me to go tryout for the football team, and I did. I made a complete fool out of myself and walked off the field after about 20 minutes. My self-esteem was crushed to rock bottom that year as I did not even try to go back. During the following winter season, something inside of me switched. I was sick of always being made fun of, and picked on for how I looked. I remember watching Rocky over at a friends house and that was the moment when I knew what I had to do. I began surfing the internet and reading countless magazines on how to eat healthier and build muscle. During that next football season, I went back. I'll admit I wasn't the best at it, but I never gave up. I wanted to become the biggest, fastest, and strongest I could be. All alone, I started staying after school and putting in the extra hours in the weight room. As the strongest kid on the team for once, I played football for the remainder of high school. I want to become the best life-time natural bodybuilder I can be. God willing, I will become what I�ve set in motion!

The art, the pumps, the thrills, the pain, the suffering, the triumph, the endorphins, the stares, the glory, the knowledge.
