I started slow by taking 'serious' walks at work when time allowed. I started to save some extra money and slowly bought gym equipment for the basement gym; benches, bars, weights, cardio equipment, etc. Some equipment was used or even free. I researched on nutrition (still do) and slowly began pushing myself more and more with the realization that it takes hard work and no magic pills or potions; watching TV doesn't give results.

I like doing my best to look and feel my best. Working out also relieves a lot of stress. After three months of being dedicated I can see results and the results motivate me even more.
