I was very skinny in High School. All my latin girlfriends were athletic and built thick-something much admired by the boys. Furthermore, I was fascinated by the girls on the muscle magazine covers. From there, I became motivated to weight train to add curves and muscle to my body. I was very novice to the fitness world therefore only incorporated basic body exercises at home with my 10 pound weights :).

I don't mind breaking a sweat. It gives me a rush and I love to see observable progress.
