I was always an active person, but around my senior year of high school/ first year of college I started doing a lot less physical activity and a lot more partying. In 2009 I decided to join the Army National Guard, and that's what really kicked off the start of a new lifestyle. Basic training whipped me into pretty decent shape and got me started, since then I try to make fitness a regular part of my life but sometimes fall off the wagon.
