It all started towards the end of my junior year in high school. I actually had a crush on a little beauty in one of my classes and for some reason I just decided to get in shape. I started with running everyday and doing bodyweight exercises, just push ups and abs at first. As my physique began to change, my motivation level only increased. A bit of a snowball affect occurred and when the first day of my senior year came around, I turned quite a few heads. All that year I was complimented on my frame several times a day, everyday. The motivation continued to grow... and is still thriving today.
I love the lifestyle because it's a constant challenge and there is no "end of the road," there is only the journey. This is one thing in life that I have complete control over and I am a control freak! From the endorphin rush, to the pumps, to the feeling of self satisfaction, health and fitness is what I love.
