My addiction..... to drugs almost killed me. I didn't go into fitness right away but when I stumbled into a gym, I found what I was looking for without even knowing it.
Coming from an abusive back ground, drugs and alcohol and even being homeless for a short period..... I found something I have control over. I control how my body looks (to a certain degree) and I have the will power in me to do anything I want. I didn't know I had such discipline over myself.
Went to my first competition and I was hooked!

I workout for me and how I look in the mirror after a good intense workout. When I'm at the gym I think about how can I change what I looked like when I came in. I want visible results. I want to motivate other as some have motivated me. I know we all have bad luck stories but I truly believe if I can change my life and my health.....ANYONE can at any point in their lives!!!
