How it all began...
A few years ago I was really overweight and finally got tired of it. Like really tired of it unlike the first 5 times I tried to eat better but it never really stuck. I was about 240lb and through diet and a little exercise (mostly cardio) I was able to get under 200lb.
From there I joined a better local gym and got a trainer which took my fitness to a whole new level. I got all the way down to 178lb or so. This really got me interested in training, fitness and bodybuilding.
From there I started training and eating like a bodybuilder and I did this for about a year with decent results. But even as I was training for bodybuilding I would always try to break personal records and lift heavier weight and test myself and focusing less on volume as I should have.
So after going to the Arnold (2015) and thinking about it some more I decided to switch over to powerlifting. Now I'm planning to compete in December.
This is the journey to my first meet and beyond.
