I started in high school, taking a weightlifting class. Taking it once, turned in to taking it 4 times. I loved it. I was a pencil when I first started, and the gains I had were what kept me going. Granted they weren't the biggest gains, but I needed to gain weight.

I feel like I'm accomplishing something each time I'm in the gym, taking myself in a better direction. The results make it all worth it.
