Oregon Attended 1999 to 2003 Wisconsin United States
When I Started:
Sep, 2003
How I Started:
I was 240lbs at 13 years old and only 5'10". Sports were hell and I sucked at them big time. I wanted to be a star athlete and so I starting eating right and working out the only way I knew how. In two years I was 6ft and 200lbs. I took this motivation and accomplishment in stride and wanted to see what I could do if I really applied myself to reach the ultimate level of physique sports.
Why I Love It:
No other activity gives me the pride, pleasure, gratification and joy then bodybuilding does. The high I get before, during and after every workout is unlike any other feeling I can think of. When you can take full control of your health and your body you can control anything in your life!
How I Stay Motivated:
Not knowing what my true potential really is or what I could really look like keeps me pushing harder and harder every workout to get just a little closer to gaining a glimps of what that potential might look and feel like.
BB Accomplishments:
I have competed 3 times since the summer of 2003 which was the year I started college and really went gung ho on the sport. I did one AAU contest as a teen, one INBF show the following April as an adult light heavy and my last contest was an NPC show this past April also as a light heavy. Accepting this lifestyle is my biggest accomplishment of all!

Good to know there are more crazy Wisconsinites on here, LOL! Thanks alot for the encouragement! Best of luck to you! Enjoy that snow out there, I know I will. NOT!
Thank god I have a gym at home it makes it much easier in the winter. I actually enjoy working out alot in the winter because their's really nothing else to do other than ski or snowmobile and I don't do either. I have a feeling this is going to be a brutal winter.
dude, there is no world or gold's gym in here ..i wish it would...
i workout in civitavecchia that is 70 km on the north of rome
i was working out in World Gym in Marina del rey when i was in LA, that also does not exist anymore , unfortunately!!!
i should be there soon.
As regards your being in Termini Station Area, you can find a Fitnessfirst facility inside the station, it is not what you can immagine of a gym coming from US, but at least there is a Rack for doing Free Squats..
but for the rest..it is a real **** with only technogym machines and very light dumbbells
hi dude, i am from Civitavecchia, it is 70 km on the north of rome. i am trying to buy a little gym in Los Angeles, where i lived the most of 2005-2006, to relocate to California.
