When I Started:
Jun, 2006
How I Started:
I've wanted to become a bodybuilder since I can remember. As a young kid I would sit and stare at the pages of BB magazines for hours on end and dream of one day becoming that size. 20 some odd years later, the journey to turn that dream into a reality begins....
Why I Love It:
The human body is truly the most amazing machine there is. To exhibit complete control over your own body with respect to nutrition and exercise and watch your body change week after week gives you a "high" like non other. So many things in life have a negative reinforcing cycle, where one bad behavior triggers another......but bodybuilding is the exact opposite. The positive gains made from training can be felt well outside the gym and spill over into almost every other aspect of one's life.
How I Stay Motivated:
One look at an IFBB pro, followed by one look in the mirror....motivation complete!
BB Accomplishments:
Lost over 85 lbs. in less than 3 mos. (wasnt healthy to do so quickly, but thats how I roll baby!)
Forum Signature:
You can work hard to move mountains, or work even harder and become one!
