A few years ago I became a Roman reenactor. A few of us in the group decided to start a Gladiator subgroup.
I realized if I wanted to look the part of a Gladiator I had to get into shape.
Why I Love It:
I just love the amount of fat I've been able to burn off over the last year. Its a good feeling receiving all the compliments I've been getting.
How I Stay Motivated:
The fact that I'm actually reaching some of my goals is helping me stay motivated.
Watching many of my friends starting to live healthier lifestyles, and exercise more also helps me stay motivated.
BB Accomplishments:
Dropping close to 50lbs of weight in the last year after turning 40. I've also dropped 5% body fat in the last 7 months.
Forum Signature:
Ok the Leg Press story is old.

What omnisjdi Is Up To:
May 11, 2009
omnisjdichanged Weight from 194 lbs. to 190 lbs., a 4 lb. loss in 28 days
Get Stronger, and burn body fat.
Be able to do Chin Ups and Pull Ups for the first time in my life.
Goal (Long):
Have a body fat of 15-20% lower the better.
Have a working Bench Press of 225lbs for reps in the next 6 months. I just passed the 135lbs for reps mark. I'd like to have a max bench press of 300lbs+ some time in the next year. I'd like to have a max Squat (or Smith Machine Squat) of 360lbs in the next year [a power lifting friend of mine doesn't think I have the build for it. I'll show him].
I just read an interesting article about Austin in the Canadian magazine, The Walrus. It was fascinating. Austin might as well be Mozambique to me, so this was an education.
