What Fuels Your Fire!

My Freshman year in High School I weighed 122 pounds dripping wet. I was skinny, weak, and had little confidence in my ability to do anything. I at some point in my first year of undergrad decided I wanted to change that and hit the weight room. As I started lifting I found the results I got in terms of strength and size was a direct result of how hard I worked. I was determined to not be the skinny kid anymore and began to fall in love with the weight room and the ability it gave me to change my body.


Ever since my I started working out there probably hasn't been more than a few weeks where I haven't done at least some sort of physical activity each week. I now weigh around 190 pounds with approximately 15% body fat. Now I'm not the most fit trainer you'll ever meet but I work hard to keep myself fit and to be an example for those I train.

So I was determined to change my body and I used my insecurities to fuel the fire. To really change your life and your body I feel you need to find the true reason you want to lose body fat. For me I didn't feel comfortable in the skin that I was in, but for you it might be that your family history stinks and you want to be sure your doing everything you can to avoid the inevitable heart attack or cancer.

So leave a comment and tell me what your goal is and the real reason behind reaching it! And remember don't let anything get in your way of achieving your goals.
