My dad actually invited me one day to go workout with him at our current gym, and once I stepped into the gym I was hooked. Over a couple month period some bodybuilders got me on a program that they used and worked for them.
When I get into the gym it's 110% business! Bodybuilding has helped me stay focused in school and reduce alot of stress you get from school, work, family, friends, etc. I love the lifestyle I chose I would never look back, you know even my family says "WOW charlie you are really eating healthy"... I tell them "it's a lifestyle, I'd rather live longer then eat crappy food and increase my risks of health diseases you know?"
No matter who I meet, a lot of my friends including some friends that are girls notice my physical change dramatically, and I love it. I will continue to body build my goal is to win a few amateur contests and get my name around.
