At 6' and 155 pounds, I was told more than once I was too skinny... Finally decided to do something about it. Joined a gym and made my day start at 0500 every day. A year and 30 pounds of muscle later, I was hooked. Now at a (relatively) lean 205, I hate to miss a workout.

I love picking up some db and remembering struggling with it a year ago, or thinking I would never move it a few years ago.
