My bodybuilding start was the traditional in the basement sort of thing. I began by using my uncle's weight bench that was in my basement. Then, I wasn't extremely serious, I really only had just begun and had no idea what I was doing. Soon, I moved and didn't work out at all for half a year or so, untill my father introduced me to Mark Perry, a national level competitor. He was the biggest man I had ever seen.

Makes me feel like I am worth something. I believe that my body is the only thing I have tying me to this world and that it is a tool that I can use to achieve my own ends. If it's the only thing I truly own, then I want it to be the best it can possibly be.
