Well, initially it was to stop being skinny. However, I wasn't necessarily too serious then so well, I stopped being skinny. Then I got a disease and ended up getting fat. After I started feeling my fat rolls, I got disgusted so well, had to do something about it.
Why I Love It:
Its a traditionally, non-academic method of stimulating my brain. I'm a nerd like that though.
How I Stay Motivated:
Realizing that if I don't, I won't look or perform the way I want to. Thats just unacceptable, so I might as well keep at it.
BB Accomplishments:
Going from 125 to 205 in 5-7 years. Talk about awesome. :-)

Nov 26, 2009
miked512updated Motivation Level from 8/10 to 10/10 and said: "Time to EAT!"
miked512updated Fit Status "Happy thanksgiving to all of you! Just got done at the gym and about to enjoy the fun. Then back to the gym in the morning."
Transforming the Michelin Man into the Incredible Hulk sure would be awesome, wouldn't it?
Goal (Long):
Someone asked me what I was trying to accomplish recently and being a hobby just didn't really cut it. Recently I've been trying to find an inner focus and path to enlightenment through training. However, I think I've indeed become serious about reaching 230 between 5-8% bodyfat.
Gaining a bit of crazy athleticism would be cool too but thats just a side effect of the training.
dnsigma is probably a bit too modest about his conditioning. He asks questions, writes some of the most intelligent and articulate posts on this site and appears to strive for more out of life than just being the biggest, most ripped person on the site. Geez, I want a Ph.D too. His profile often reminds me that I'm procratinating with a few things and the fact he's in incredible shape just ... yeah, I just got reminded I've got some work to do.
Thanks
This dude works 2, 3, or 5 jobs. Hell, I don't know. Has a family and manages to get his training AND bodyspace gossip/report time in. This is madness. He even has my original power ring. *sigh*
Why I like this video: This is actually a pretty bad fitness series, but like I said, calisthenics madness. Most of the people that buy this can't get into position to do a large amount of these movements.
I miss barbell club. The student run, 24/7 (they gave you a key) weight lifting facility on GT campus that was closed down to a whole bunch of political nonsense. :-D
I was reminded of it today when I went to my "24/7" mega-gym around the corner from my house to go workout only...
Naw I was going to but I decided to go ahead and do cardio yesterday and today then and probably gonna hit the weights tonight. I won't be doing any heavy lifting until monday though
I didn't eat as much as i thought I would but I enjoyed everything to the fullest!!! I only gained 2lbs too so I figure not much damage was done lol how about you?
How is it going Mike? Training and dieting has been going as good as expected for this time of the year. As you know, we all had a big cheat day yesterday, but otherwise on track. How's your training going?
man i went over to that quest a while back and i loved it i just joined up overthere the other day i told myself originally that i was going to wait till my contract was up at PF but i just got impatient and was like hell just go anyways
Man i am training like an animal man.. getting stronger.. i did 700 Leg press 3 reps last week this time.. and so i am going for 6 to 7 reps today.., and then next week 7 to 9 etc etc.. hopefully by end of January / Feb.. 1 thou lbs...(shoulders) we'll see...
Those Negatives, how are those working for you? I have never trued them
your right man. With clients they dont like being in the gym all the time. They lose it easy. Gotta keep it interesting for em. So where can I get me some sand bags bro??
