I took weight training in high school during my senior year and I really enjoyed it from then on. I never really got bigger until I was 20 years old. I was 115 lbs. when I graduated. Now I am 44 and my weight is up to where I am not happy with how I look. It's quite a change from back then. I guess it happens to everyone. Anyway, I want to lower my body fat and gain muscle mass. I haven't been able to work out the past year that much due to rotator cuff tendonitus the past several months. I go off and on weight training to where I look ok and then slack off again. It is tough for me to stay consistent.

I like being in shape. It makes me feel good when people comment that I look great.
