I was a military police officer in the US Navy from 2003 to 2008; the military taught me a lot about fitness and nutrition and it has been a hobby ever since. Now, I am a nurse and my appreciation for physical health is much deeper.

I love bodybuilding/working out because it empowers me and gives me a high. I love what it does to my body, but more importantly I love the way it makes me feel. It gives me confidence, and a gusto for life.
