steve_boutcher

Overall Goal:  I want to stay leaner this off-season and work hard to compete in 2010. Keep promoting natural bodybuilding and changing the negative public image and association with drugs.

Fit Status:  In good shape, strong and pretty lean.

Motivation Level: 9/10


Personal Info And Background:
Real Name:
Steve
Sex:
Male
Age:
29
Location:
Occupation:
Gym instructor, personal trainer
Personal Website:
Gym:
Gym Location:
Norway
When I Started:
2004
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.

- ISSA Specialist in Performance Nutrition
- ISSA Certified Fitness Trainer

- The fear of being average drives me.
- A strong body keeps you sane in an insane world
- I would rather come last and do so naturally than come first and lie about taking drugs.
- I don't believe in shortcuts, they negate the value of achievement
- I see things in 3D:

"Discipline, Determination, Dedication"

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.
