motivation

Ok, I know this might be personal, but I was wondering if some of you wanna share your reasons for pushing your body to its physical peak? :shrug: I know why I do, but I want some other views on it to... thanks

its a way of life...
it makes me feel good to be healthy and conscious
i like the challenge of changing shape beyond the norm.

I love seeing the changes I can make in myself, as well as the personal gratification it brings.

It is a healthy lifestyle because life is too short and one day your healthy the next day you could be in a wheelchair or in a coma. Hopefully, I will enjoy my retirement not couped up in some home along people who are on oxygen tanks.

I like to be fit, big and strong for my job. Oh and to please my wife!!

i want people too look at me and be like wtf is wrong w/ him why would anyone wanna look like that... and know they are only saying that outta jealously :(
also i suffer from EXTREME Dysmorhpia..
when i was younger like from baby to about 10yrs old i was a Small fat kid picked on all time by lota older peeps, i was the baby in my neghbor hood.
even when i was up to 285 i still felt .. inadaquate in size :tear:

taiboxa, kinda in the same boat as you i was big as a kid and dropped a lot of that weight and turned it into a lot of muscle, working out has almost became a drug to me. Looking forward to specific days so i can work that part (ARMS :):), or dreading some days (such as legs). I love to see the results, and your not doing anything but good for your body.
