I was in college and would always play around with weights but nothing serious, and I just remember how I felt after I finally could get up two plates (135)on the bench. I kept setting and reaching higher goals and I was hooked from there.
Why I Love It:
I think there is no better feeling than the one you get after you finish a good intense workout. I love this masochistic lifestyle because it is you against yourself. You are pushing yourself. Lifting teaches me to not only train my body but my mind as well. Not one workout goes by without me having to will myself to do something my body tells me I cannot. Lifting keeps me sane.
How I Stay Motivated:
I am just starting to truly learn my body. Gains keep me motivated. I lift alone, so I have to self motivate. I believe staying fit will take me to where I want to be and what I want to accomplish in life. I constantly stay focused on my end Goal, not where I currently am but where I will be.
BB Accomplishments:
None really to date.

I will have to give you a very generic answer I am affraid. Over the 14 years I have been training I have played around with rep ranges to find whats best for my body. EVERY body part is different. When I find what works for a body part I stick with it. I can give specifics if you want.
