I served in the Army, and I was tired of being "puny" so I started lifting my second year. I was in great shape at many points during my tenure. I was also a personal trainer for about 5 years after the Army. Since stopping the personal training, I have struggled with my weight. I stay pretty fit, just more round than I like. I lift pretty heavy, and won a bench press contest about 9 years ago. I need to loose about 20 lbs, and get my bench back up.

I lift at lunch. It is a break from work, and is a stress reliever.
