When I Started:
Feb, 2008
How I Started:
Started working out again after a 3 year lay-off. While working 70 hour weeks and tons of travel, I sorta let my workout go. I also had a shoulder injury and some lower back pain from an old sports injury that really needed time to heal.
Why I Love It:
I love the personal growth and therapy from working out. I want to stay fit for my children and be an active part of their lives. I have never sat on the sidelines with anything,raising my kids won`t be a spectator sport for me either.
How I Stay Motivated:
I`ve just made a commitment to myself. My father passed away at an early age with heart problems and I`m just trying to be there for my family by staying in shape. I hope it helps,but I understand there are no guarantees.

My goal is to gain muscle and lose a little fat, I`m planning on stepping on stage for the first time right after I turn 40 in Jan.`09. I have found the inspiration and now I just need to be a better me...
Goal (Long):
I plan on spending the next 8 weeks turning my body into a temple. Build more strength and stay lean. 6ft tall and 205 w/ 9-10 percent bodyfat is my goal. I also need to improve my overall endurance, so more cardio and conditioning is in store.
What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
None. I`ll just do me.

Have you ever had a lifting injury?
Yes
What type of injury was it? How long were you injured? How did you recover?
Shoulder injury, I got it originally when I played baseball and it has sorta been re-occuring when I lift too heavy. Just trying to do the right stretches and supplement well.
