Got interested thru high school sports like most people. The desire never went away. In August 07 I decided to train for my first competition. No Looking Back Now!!!
Why I Love It:
The pump. The challenge. The knowledge. The confidence. Friends I have made. The payoff - great health and good appearance.
How I Stay Motivated:
1. All of the people on bodybuilding.com
2. Look in the mirror.
3. The idea of living a longer, healthier life.
and
4. MY FOUR TROPHIES from my first two events.
BB Accomplishments:
The 2007 USBF Baltimore Pro-Amateur Natural Competition
1st Place Novice Heavyweight (yes at 154lbs, I was in Heavy. Big Under 154lbs turnout)
Runner UP - Novice Overall
3rd Place - Lightweight Open
The 2007 Charm City Classic - Bmore, MD
1st Place Novice Lightweight
Runner UP - Novice Overall
3rd Place - Lightweight Open
In general, the way I look today is my biggest accomplishment. Working out is tough. Just being disciplined enough to make it to the gym with consistency is a good enough accomplishment for me. Lots of folks fall off due to kids, spouses, jobs, etc. Thank goodness I have motivation from this website. Another big accomplishment is doing all natural without buying a whole lot of supplements that are way too expensive. I just eat good, clean solid meals 95% of the time.

What trey22 Is Up To:

trey22changed Overall Goal: "Take a break. Re-group. Decide on another competition date to do since I decided not to do June 13th.."
Take a break. Re-group. Decide on another competition date to do since I decided not to do June 13th.
Goal (Long):
Studying to become a personal trainer. A lot of work since I have a career that takes up at least 11 hours of my day. EVERY DAY.
But I feel if I am gonna motivate and improve others, I better look the part! No one wants an out of shape trainer motivating them. Right?!?!
Also I have some desire to do the fitness modeling. I guess ive been reading too many Men's Health and Maximum Fitness magazines!

Went to physical therapy session this morning for the pain i was having in my shoulder and rear lat. at 7:00 this morning!!! Blah. But, I was awakened by the laser treatment I received. Talk about feel good pain.
Still have two to three more sessions to go. And hopefully I will be good as...
Its a secret. Actually Im working with a trainer and now that the season is over, Im taking a week off and he and I are gonna develop a training plan based on my next competition goals, weaknesses, etc.
Trey, I train p/t for now. I have been f/t at a corporation for 13+ years and started training 3 years ago. Did one year in a commercial gym then went independent. Would recommend the same to you. Let the gym provide the customers, training, equipment and a shirt until you are ready to go solo. You'll be ready in 6-9 months with your experience. Just don't expect clients to have your goals and motivations. PM me if you want to chat details.
i was 184 today..highest in a while..just started a lean mass gainer..so will see how that works.. and thx appreciate that..i always seem to look 15lbs heavier then i actually am..everyone always thinks i weight over 200lb
I stopped by to say that you look absolutely amazing! You have the body that so many want but are not willing to put the effort into developing. You should be complimented on your dedication, determination as well as achievement. You are a fantastic inspiration to others. Stay strong, focused and determined & may God bless.
hey my man, how've you been? was out with the flu for a couple weeks. hitting hard again, managed not to lose any size, think i really needed the recovery time.
Man, its been rough. Wasted a lot of time the last few months, too, but finally back on track now that I've decided to compete in my first show next year. Possibly 2 shows in the same month 3 weeks apart if I can afford the entry fees. How's it all been for you?
Actually I didn't compete at that show because of some personal BS that crept up on me. I am now working on putting on lean muscle now. The goal is at least 190 to come in at least 175-180 on stage.
