After being a college athlete, I realized I'd let myself go physically. I went from being athletic and active to sedentary and complacent. One day, I hopped on a scale and realized I weighed 170lbs! The next day I went out and purchased an exercise bike and started monitoring my eating habits. Since then I have progress from using the exercise bike, to incorporating weight training and HIIT into my routine.

I like working out because I feel it gives me better energy. I've also had bouts with insomnia and I find being active physically helps me sleep better. I also like the lean look I get from being in shape.
