My good friend and I (Alex) started experimenting with weight lifting at 24 Hour Fitness during our senior year of high school. It wasn't until Sophomore year of college I actually started to pursue bodybuilding and trying strict diet plans to achieve different goals with my body.

There is never a day when I wake up and regret having started lifted weights. It has brought nothing but joy and happiness to myself and those around me who I have given the gift of bodybuilding to.
