hey my body building bro's,
just curious, what made you pic up you first dumbell and start lifting? what brought you so into the game that you cant go a day without the gym? what is your motivation, what keeps you going? if you have cycled then what made you cycle? lets hear your story...
heres my story.
i was always the skinny kid, skin and bones my whole life, i remember when i was in 4th grade i could suck in my stomach and see all of my ribs, my grandma used to tell me i looked like i was from bosnia. 8th grade my brother got some free weights for christmas, he had gotten some dumbells, a bar bell, and a curl bar. those were the weights i ever used, i still use them when i cant sleep or im bored.
well anyways by the end of 8th grade my arms started to look alittle shredded, and i started workin my stomach alot so i had a 6 pac with no problem. my freshman year of highschool i used to hope we would be goin to the weight room for gym everyday. other than that i still lifted with my freeweights at home. finally i convinced my mom to let me get a membership to a gym not to far from my house. i was 13 at the time, i lied to the guys at the gym told them i was 16, im sure they knew i was lying but i dont think they cared.
my brother taught me alot about how to lift and how important form is. his friend john played the biggest role im my weight lifting life however. john weighed about 180 and was benchin close to 400 (used supplements but no cycles). to this day john is the most cut guy i have ever seen and he had so much mass at the same time. he showed me what i needed to do to get big, what i needed to think to get big as well. by sophimore year i was repping 155 on bench weighing in at 120 pounds.
my junior year i took weight training class during school and still went to the gym after school, weighed in at 130 about and was maxed at 225. my senior year i weigh 140 and im can bench 280. i am currently a senior, and by far im strongest in my school, especially pound for pound, my coach wants me to do some contest for him, and i always have kids i have never seen in my before asking me for tips, what to take, what to do. nothing makes me feel better though like when a classmate i dont even know comes up to me and tells me im the biggest kid in the school, or im the strongest hes ever seen. i usually try to ignore him so it doesnt goto my head, because the last thing i need right now is to lose my train of thought.
