I was always the fat kid growing up. I never learned proper eating habits and I grew up in an environment were fast food was easy and convenient for my mother raising 3 kids on her own. I finally decided at age 23 to be healthy and made the choice to enter the United States Air Force. I lost 120 lbs in 9.5 months with nothing but a jump rope, medicine ball, a track close by, and a desire to be healthy.

I love working out because it is an outlet to daily stresses. I like the confidence I have in my physique and I feel good about myself. My wife and I share that bond as far as working out and being healthy and it is something we do together.
