Just like most people, started the whole lifting and working out during high school to get bigger for football. I wasn't really big for a full back, maybe 185 in season but I was squatting over 300 consistently so I had some decently strong legs....after senior year I finally gave creatine a try and I ended up putting like ten pounds of muscle on which blew me away, been hooked on iron since :)
Why I Love It:
It's the best way to take stress out I mean whats better than going to a gym for an hour or so and throwing weights around. Plus I get a huge self esteem boost by seeing myself develop into a healthier person.
How I Stay Motivated:
I used to be overweight during middle school, like overweight where I was embarassed to wear normal shirts, I always wore Xlarge shirts in six/seventh grade...i hated taking pictures etc....so whenever I see myself in the mirror or while working out and I want to quit I think about the past and it only fuels the fire.
BB Accomplishments:
none yet...but after I return from field training for my air force ROTC this summer I'm gonna start bulking up again and see if I can enter a contest before school or around the beginning of school.

So as of 6 May 2008, I have two weeks left till I officially get on a plane for Field Training....with this in mind, I am boosting my cardio to twice a day on workout days and on non-workout days doing an hour of cardio during the middle of the day when it's the hottest (which will help...
Sublexed three of my ribs doing pull-ups they think...left my whole left back/side/abs messed up. BUT, good news is I'm back at it as of 2 days ago :) Any chance you're going to be down here for the VEISHA celebrations this weekend?
Hey you! How are things?! Yea, break was good and now it's back to the grind...only 5 weeks though! How's training going? I've been out on injury for the last 6 weeks unable to do ANYTHING. I just got the clear to walk and do the elliptical w/o arms last week. Hopefully I will be back soon! It's driving me crazy!
ooh, spring break - lucky!! are you going anywhere fun? not much on my end - just turned the big 3-0 (i know, i'm ancient ;)), and looking forward to summer (but, i guess i should hit the gym first ;)).
Oops! I forgot to take them off... unfortunately, I was getting some brutal headaches on them, so I stopped taking them. I'm sensiteev. :) How have you been?
Yeah, I go to school at ISU. GO CYCLONES! But, if I ever do venture over to the "other side" we'll meet up and I'll teach you how to do a handstand :) Haha.
