"Get into great condition for my next show on September 27th. Survive contest prep!"

Personal Info And Background:
Real Name: Steve
Sex: Male
Age: 28
Location:
Occupation: Gym instructor, personal trainer
Personal Website:
Gym:
Gym Location: 26 Squat Rack lane
When I Started: 1999
How I Started: I got started because I wanted to be bigger and stronger to help me in my martial arts goals. I got fed up of losing because I was the smallest in my weight group.
Why I Love It: The lifestyle, health benefits and of course seeing how the body responds to resistance training. Knowing that you are achieving something that a large percentage of the population simply cannot be bothered to do, or simply don't have the discipline to do gives a definate feel good factor.
How I Stay Motivated: Setting higher goals for yourself. Seeing changes and recieving positive comments from people. The fear of being average. The health benefits of being a natural bodybuilder.
BB Accomplishments: Gaining 17lbs of muscle in about 1 and a half years. Achieving my current body weight of 199lbs with a body fat percentage of 6.2%
Forum Signature: Success is in the details. Bodybuilding is more than just a hobby... it's a way of life.

I think the "vacuum" looks suits me far better. Despite my expression I was not drunk, honestly!  This 14 weeks out from my 2nd show.
