I liked the idea of working out when I was younger. But, I was always the skinniest kid in the gym and I had a hard time adhering to a program for more than a few weeks at a time. In 2009, I met up with a buddy that I hadn't seen in a long time and he had gotten SWOLE. I couldn't believe how far he had come since I saw him last. Being an extremely competitive person, I couldn't let him outdo me like that. That's all it took to get the ball rolling for me and it hasn't stopped since!

The camaraderie of the bodybuilding world. The confidence that bodybuilding gives me. I love to challenge myself to fight back and beat the crap out of my body's will to live a sedentary lifestyle. I love the sound of the weights banging and the feeling of sweat dripping down my face. I love reaching out to motivate others to GO GET that body they've always wanted. I could go on and on here, there are NO CONS to bodybuilding!
