When I Started:
Oct, 2002
How I Started:
Started out just trying to stay fit. Graduated to heavy lifting three years ago.
Why I Love It:
Its an addiciton. It helps my everyday life. It has helped me better understand the place of goal setting and planning in and out of the gym. It is ny greatest hobby and my stress relief. I do this for the love of it.
How I Stay Motivated:
I keep setting the bar a little higher every year. I keep moving forward so idont get bored. the thought of getting fat and lazy is a major motivator too. I dont want to see myself that way.
BB Accomplishments:
I placed in the money in a couple localn contests. Nothing big. I came back from a serious shoulder injury. After the injury it was excrucitaing to do push ups. Now i have a strong bench,etc so that makes me happy. It was a pain getting here though. The biggest accomplishemnt is knowing that i am protecting my health and potentially giving mylsef a better future. that means the world to me.
