In my freshman year of high school, I was interested in sports but was not very athletic. I played basketball in the parks , various summers, but never joined an official team. I never thought I was that good enough to represent a squad. I was cut from the soccer team but made the volleyball team. After high school, I was looking into weightlifting. I asked my friends little brother, Xavier, if he would train with me and he was kind enough to do so. He showed me the ropes for weight training and it was pretty cool.

I like the way it makes me feel at the end of the day.
