Two friends and I used to run together five times a week. One of them suggested we join a gym so we did. I took an interest in body building right away and loved seeing the gains. I'm the only one of the trio that still goes to the gym and works out.

Seeing an improvement in my body is a very big self-esteem boost for me. As is when friends come up and say that THEY see the improvement. I like a disciplined lifestyle.
