As a kid, at my best friend's homemade backyard gym --on the block (a Joe Weider Bench set w/ concrete-plastic covered weights...remember those?). I also got started through playing sports: bball, football, swimming, and running as a teen and in high school....eversince then, I have been addicted!!

I love the way that fitness, bodybuilding and working-out overall provides the opportunity to increase my mind, body, health, and life goal-setting potential. It is freeing!! Working-out is a solstice, place of balance and escape from everyday stress, any worries, work, and life. Plus, you cannot deny the benefits it provides to one's overall health! I am sure I will be doing this...until the day I die!
