My buddy has been a serious weightlifter for a few years and he encouraged me to start with him. Didn't take long for it to become a passioin.

I love how it takes focus and dedication 24 hours a day to be successful in weightlifting/bodybuilding. You can't just walk into the gym every day, have a good lift and come out with a perfect body. It takes discipline in every aspect of life, from diet to sleep schedule, to get your body into world class shape.
