I played soccer for 25 years until I tore my ACL, because of some of health complications I have not been able to get surgery to repair it, that was 5 years ago. I decided not to let it stop me from getting fitter, stronger, and faster. I started working out off and on from June 2012 to January 1, 2013. From January, I decided I was going to lift weights and lift heavy. I lost about 35lbs so far.

I love being able to push myself, I love the feeling of lifting heavy and being proud of what I accomplished.. It is addictive to say the least but I love it..
