Thankfully in my High School the year I began attending a member of the Phys Ed. department, a very positive and encouraging man "Coach Hultz" pushed to have a Co-Ed Weight Training class. I took this PE Elective all 3 years and remain thankful to this day for it.

Having a lil bit of muscle has helped me during various crashes on Motos and MTBs to not sustain greater damage than I have. Also... if you're not blessed with the quite the top features on the handsome list, nor a close-knit "funnctional" cohesive family background... you start needing other chips to stack in your favor when pursuing a mate. Thankfully I was at the top of my workout game when I met the future mother of my child... and it was NOT by accident. ;)
