When I Started:
1980
How I Started:
My friend and I were getting ready to try out for the high school football team. He got me into the gym. I got cut from the team (Probably a good thing, Lawrence Taylor was playing up the road)but kept working out. Eventually, I helped to manage a small chain of gyms on the Virginia penisula in the 757 area code. I then became a paratrooper and quickly discovered that fitness, mass and strength made hard landings a lot more survivable.
Why I Love It:
The confidence, the pump and the friendships.
How I Stay Motivated:
Magazines. Friends. Bodybuilding.com

I have been all over the map with my physique over the last several years. This is mainly due to continued military deployments in the War on Terror. Shortly before Sep 11 I was weighing in at 5’ 9” 205 lbs. with a 33” waist, 26 “ thighs and squatting over 600 lbs. One of my friends called me “raw”. Things have changed a lot since then. I have been all over the world in some pretty ****ty situations and have struggled with some injuries and some bizarre medical things associated with hanging out in the third world, jungles in particular.
I am back in the desert again but this time my job is going to have me on a fairly regular schedule. I look forward to getting back into the gym and getting fit. I have learned over the years to start slowly and ease my way back into things. I have been doing rotator cuff stuff and have moved up to power cleans and lots of upper back work to avoid upper cross syndrome. I did my first squat workout yesterday in over year as I had some serious service related autoimmune problems in my hips. It’s a lot better now and I am ready to rock.
"When you imagine walking through a health club, what do you visualize? Sadly, most people's conception includes televisions, stereos, ipods, magazines and book racks.
What do all of these objects have in common? They're distractions. But have you...
Ah, another day in paradise, right? Got 25 days left for this deployment and I'm ready to get home. It's been hard to eat the way I want here. Gains have been good, but a little more body fat than I wanted while massing. Gotta love the DFAC! How's things?
I get you, man. Unless there's something very strange going on, everyone's abs will show at 10% and it's maintainable if you don't shock your system into it. No such thing as excessive strength when it comes to stickfighting!
THanks for the comments brother. Looking tough there...excellent development in the traps and upper back. Nice work. Keep pressing. Stay safe over there pal.
Hey thanks QRX! I'm more of a hybrid powerlifter that does a lot of standard bodybuilding exercises. I keep my bf low simply by diet & keeping my interset intervals short. I get my lift poundages up with powerlifting tricks, i.e., chains, bands, partials, etc. I'm more interested in single-rep-maxes than showy abs. What are you after?
Hey guy, good to hear from ya! Doing some hard bodybuilding lately. Trying to rip it up for the next (last) show (Mid Atlantic Natual Classic) for the season!
