I started working out in highschool as preperation for wrestling/football/gym I did not eat right at all and weighed around 140 lbs when I graduated in 2003. Around 2004 I was tired of being scrawny and began working out and eating better. By 2005 I was around 168 lbs and very lean. After two really bad injuries and an automobile accident set me back I am back at the game again.

When I don't work out I feel weak, get depressed, lethargic, and get sick often. After working out I sometimes feel "high", and besides the obvious health benefits, working out simply makes me feel good physically and socially.
