I watched the greats growing up; Arnold, Lou, Franco, and Frank Zane. Then when I turned 12 my father got me a gym membership to the new local 24 hours fitness that was in an old camera shop. Only about the size of a single bedroom apartment living room!! But I learn the fundamentals, breathing, and importance of keeping good form.

When I start my day the gym is the first thing on my mind. It takes my mind off of everyday stresses, and gives me a sense of stability in my chaotic life.
