I have always been a slim dude. Ectomorphic body type and a super high metabalism has been my go too excuse for years. Finally I decided it was time to make change in my outer body to match what my mind thinks I look like. I am 180+ lbs and my mind continues to push toward the 220 goal.

I struggled with consuming enough calories to keep my body fed and often saw weight training as something you did for sports, until a very close friend said something that changed my life.

"You are not ready to get bigger, you could NEVER be a big fit dude. You are too skinny." Limitations of others fueled this crazy journey

I love the pump and the burn after a workout. It reminds me I am alive.
