After I got married in 2005, I injured my ankle and wrist and got out of shape. In a little over a year, I went from 175 lbs to over 230. I was out of shape, depressed, basically miserable. I've always been a fan of bodybuilding, and I met someone through wrestling who needed a workout partner, and saw that I could desperately use the help.

It's amazing. Once you get your diet and your training in sync, it's an incredible feeling when you see the results of your hard work.
