I was athletic in high school and the military then let life get the best of me. I want to be there for my family and needed a better attitude in life. So, at 39 I decided to change and do something I have never done but always wanted to...body building. I'm not looking to compete or anything like that. I just want to be the best physical me that I can be and set a better example for my young son. Most people get down around 40 years old and I want to go into the next decade of my life in the best shape ever.

I enjoy working out because I can focus on just me and not feel guilty. I feel great when I workout and am looking forward to watching my progress. I already can't believe how much better I feel about myself and I am just getting started.
