I was the young kid that always got picked on, I always thought I was small and weak, as I got older things changed a lot, for one I graduated high school at 6' 5" but in my mind I was still tiny. It wasn't until I was 30 that I watched my father in law start to work out, he got in really great shape (and he's 71 and has major arthiritis issues) he showed me an old workout manual, and that was when the bug bit me.

I love the stress relief, I love being around people that have goals and plan to crush them, I love walking in feeling like I can finally take control of something, do something, and accomplish something, so few times in life do I feel like that consistently.
