Been always interested in challenging my body, have done many different things but it always comes back to me versus the weight room.

So much energy that replaces the caffeine addiction that slows me down so frequently. I love being fit, lean, mean, and having the play of muscle across my back. In the summer I never wish to wear sleeves, but I want the arms and shoulders to carry that off.

Between tattoo appointments, I love training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ). Weight lifting helps my stress levels while I'm unable to hit the mats due to my skin healing. Also to supplement and gain some of the mass I lose with constant mat time (anywhere from 4 to 6 days a week, couple hours minimum), weight lifting helps my strength and trying to stay on weight. Size doesn't matter really in BJJ--but rolling with someone who outweighs you by 100 lbs is always tricky!
