Although I have had many periods in my life where I wanted to get in good shape, and develop the "GQ" physique; Sadly it wasn't till late 2011 that I finally got the spark that would set me on a path to change! I was on deployment with the United States Air Force, we were assisting a Army Squadron in Kandahar, Afghanistan. I was a little depressed at first, being away from my new born and her older sister and of course the wife, but after receiving lots of love from home and finding a good friend,"Jared Mattox", I was set to make the changes I needed, I mean if your not gonna change in the Desert where there is nothing to do but work, then when/where would you change?
Power, Simple enough of a reason to love working out. I love the power to feel strong enough to take on my day. The power that a healthy body brings. The Confidence I have gives me the power to push my ideas and beliefs to others without overcautious woes, that may have normally stopped me in my tracks.
