Full Name: Body stats |
How and when I got involved into bodybuilding/lifting weights? This is a good question, of course I played sports so I had to be fit to play my role in the game. I do admit I was a fatty little thing. I had a little belly and huge thighs. I was nicknamed thunder thighs. Anyway, once in a while I lifted weights but I didn't know nothing about how to lift a weight or exercise with weight training. My whole life did a 360 when I was 20 yrs old. I really wasn't a fan of muscles and bodybuilding. I thought it was silly. I used to watch a lot of Saturday night live, where they had this skit of dana Carvey and another guy making fun of bodybuilding. The skit was 2 guys named hans and franz. I laughed my but off. Anyway, I was really in the middle of a bad relationship. This guy constantly put me down, saying that I would never be anything, and that I would be a loser. Well this guy was the real loser. He had a bad insecurity problem. I dropped him real fast. At that point I wanted to do something that I never done before. I ran into an old friend that was a bodybuilder. I don't know what happened. I just decided “what the hell, you live only once. I gave her a call and we hooked up. This was the biggest and best change of my life and eventually a meaning to what I was meant to be. I strongly believe that anyone can be successful and achieve there goals if they out there mind to it. Some people say I can't do it or I could never achieve that Never say never or you can't do something. Of course you can. I don't just mean bodybuilding, I mean everything. Trust me, I know this from experience. Bodybuilding is not the Easiest sport, and it sure at the most inexpensive one either. I believe that to be successful in bodybuilding you have to do a couple of things |

What did I do before body building? I played a lot of sports in high school. My favorite was soccer. I played Soccer for nine years competitive. I loved the sport. I played center defense. Awesome position. I loved getting dirty and slide tackling. But I had to stop for a while because I tore a ligament in my knee. I was going to have surgery. To be honest I chickened out. The sports doctor was going to put screws in my knee or someone else's ligament. Just talking about it gives me the chills.The other sports I played was softball,wrestling, volleyball, and track. |

It was a rough ride starting out with the diet.
