I had never "worked out" before sophomore year of college when a friend invited me. Because of that, I got over my insecurities and anxiety, and consequently got addicted to being healthy.

I don't do it for any profound reason, other than I feel I was born to do something like this.

It's my time to zone out from everything else that's stressing me out, and to take out my frustrations on the weights. Gives me an awesome feeling of power and confidence.
