To enhance my martial arts, and I used to be overweight. I was in good shape until my thirties, then because of inactivity and bad eating habits my weight ballooned to 258 pounds. I joined a gym, that's where I met my MMA instructor and we worked out and did kickboxing and jujitsu. The weight slowly came off over the next 3 years with 80-90 pounds of fat lost and then 15-20 pounds of muscle gained.

Love to be in good shape and keeps me looking young. It helps relieve stress and speeds up my metabolism.
