- I Joined the Body Proud Community to
- Many Reasons
- My Facts 'n Stats:
- I won my all natural bodybuilding Pro card with FAME in 2009 at Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. in November.
- My Background // My 'Story"
- I'm 31 years old with a beautiful wife and son. I am a student at Vatterott College as an Electrical Technology student. I really enjoy the grit and spit of the gym and all aspects of the fitness industry. I have accomplished much in the last few years and I give all the credit to my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who saved me from a hellish addiction to drugs by allowing the opportunity to really see what is in store for me long term on earth if I didn't stop. We all call this opportunity prison. Body proud says to change your outlook. Well let me tell ya, it's sink or swim in that world, yes. If you have any sense at all though you take the advice of old school cats that will never have another opportunity to show the world that they are different people and live it out for them for yourself. Basically using there life as a learning tool. Originally working out started out as a way for me to lose the jitters of a cocain habit in prison. Kept me from just vegging out in my cell and getting high or in even more trouble than I was already in. Only thing is I didn't plan on enjoying it, getting addicted to the delicious muscular burn and pump of your blood, nor the satisfaction I would feel each year I would look in my mirror and notice my shirt was getting bigger and bigger.

- My Body Proud Journey Starts Here (Blog Entry #1)
- I WILL GET THROUGH THIS SCHOOL YEAR WITH AN "A" AVERAGE! I will not give up, I will meditate and pray more, I will gain some good weight and get prepared for Worlds, I will enjoy the journey, I will be a great da and husband, and I will be body proud even when I feel like giving up sometimes.
- My Philosophy on Nutrition, Physical Fitness &/or Focused Thinking:
- you are what you eat, we could be worse so give thanks to God for what you do have, remember how you got where you are now in life, make sure you tell people your close to that you love them DAILY, try to not be so serious ALL the time -- have fun.
- My Dietary &/or Training Routine:
- I've got a five day mass building routine kickin right now with maybe 2 hrs. of cardio a week. Yesss!!! I get to eat rice and bread!!! anyhow I still eat pretty clean though and stay with in target range.
- I am Grateful For:
- My many blessing afforded me by God, my wife and son, my dad, my sobriety, my coach and his ability to continuously empower me with knowledge, I have an excellent life group amassed from several individuals including several members of my local Thorton Family YMCA.
- My Advice to You to Help You Reach Your Body Proud Goals:
- Failure is quitting, not giving your 100%, sometimes risks are neccessary to grow and achieve greatness-- Greatness isn't defined by how much you have or even the awards but it could as simple as meeting a goal, seeing your son smile at you, praise from friends and family, your wifes bragging rights about how you look in some jeans, and whether or not you were a shining example of truth and love(that dont mean we were angels 100% of the time)
- A Few Words about my Hero / Role Model / Trainer / Sponsor / Coach
- Here is a guy who feel was placed in my life path for a reason. Though we dont kick it on a daily. He has helped me grow physically, but he has also been there to give me worthwhile advice that has helped me in my personal life at work and home. Plus he does great graphics work. RIGHT ON!!! To my dad who never told me I cant do something-and that if I put my mind to it I could do it--TO a wife who doesnt really get why I dig this so much yet always supports me even when I'm gone or always training
- I learned about this site from: (Be specific please)
- my coach,Mindy, and Jeffrey

Hey every body,
recently I was approached a group of young men in the gym and we started rapping a minute about ideas and tips on working out to gain some weight and SUPPLEMENTS. Now being that I am by far a chemist or doctor my little input is based on my experiences with supplements and the wise advise of someone far more educated on the topic. It got me to thinking though, I mean, my little bit of knowledge is more than what these youngsters had and being that I am slightly athletic

Hey everybody,
I recently attended East Africa's first all natural body building event in Eldorat, Kenya. Let me tell you something folks, there is lots to be said for the quality of athleticism these gentleman bring to FAME. They far exceed anyones expectations if you were to see there local gyms first. I was absolutely impressed with the intensity and spirit of these athletes as well as the locals themselves. There was also a quiet reserve about these people as a whole. I'm sure ever
