Overall Goal: Back from summer and motivated as ever! Going to get ripped this year!
Fit Status:
I gotta cut back on the drinking and partying! They're screwing up my workouts
Motivation Level: 10/10

Personal Website:
Primary Gym:
College:
High School:
When I Started:
Dec, 2007
How I Started:
I just wanted to see what I was capable of. I was always in decently good shape (although I was kind of the fat kid in middle school, haha) but I never tried to see what I could do. So I figured why not try it out
Why I Love It:
I feel great and healthy. I like seeing gains and its always a great feeling of accomplishment when I reach my goals. I am impressed by how the body heals and how gains gain be made when you put your mind to it.
How I Stay Motivated:
I'm land-locked out in North Dakota right now. My surfing posters keep my motivated to stay in "beach-shape" so when I get back to the coast I won't be dead after one surf-session
BB Accomplishments:
I tore my ribs away from my sternum in High school and my bench went from around 200 down to repping only the 45lbs bar. I have been working my way up from there and I now I have exceeded my old max and I am up to 285lbs.

This was before I decided to start lifting. I was still pretty lean from my high school sports. I started lifting December 2007 just to see what I could do.
I know I'm hairy, what can I say, I'm Irish-Italian
How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
30 seconds for toning exercises and :45-1:00min for heavy excercises. You don't want to get cold and you also don't want to get too fresh

Have you ever had a lifting injury?
Yes
What type of injury was it? How long were you injured? How did you recover?
I injured myself in sports. I tore my ribs away from my sternum and have been trying to get my bench back. I also fractured my legs, so running sucks now. haha
I see your dropped by as I did. I hesitated commenting. You know how it is. (Well, maybe you don't). Older guy commenting to a younger guy. Didn't wanna come across as ... predatorial, I guess. Great build, kid. Thanks for the visit.
Hey Morgan, all is well, had a gr8 workout tonight, cario, legs, abs, sauna, man. felt good, then off to prison ministry. Fun evening. Keep at it, anchors aweigh, bro. Peace, Rich
Hey hun...For cardio I've been jumping on the bike for 40 minutes a day, I try to keep my RPM (or whatever it is LoL) to like 125-150...I used to use the tredmill cause I loved running, but with my knee problems I have to lay off the tredmill.
If your going to try a new cardio regime look into HIIT...I used it before when I could use the tredmill and I found it be very successful or try the bike like me...love and recommend both :)
Awe! I hope you feel better fast!!! Don't get crazy though .....you need to rest some! Thanks for the nice words...I am very proud of the hubs too. He's one of the few guys out there that just rocks! Loves his wife and his kids and breathes to make us happy! I'm a lucky girl!!
Thank you for the friend request and for the nice compliment you attached to it. Best of luck with all your fitness goals and thank you for your service!
