i was a soccer player til i was 25 years old. then had enough
to "waste" my weekends to play soccer. in this time a friend
of mine took me to the gym; i was so pissed the next days i
couldn't even sleep because my muscles (va bene, i didn't have
muscles caus i was a skinny mf, 6.1" @ 155pounds) did hurt so much. so, for the next 2 months i didn't go to the gym anymore,
cause i hated it! then i tried again, et voilà, i felt in love with the
weights.

Some of all of the choices given. I really don't remember what prompted me to start training. I know I was first interested in it at 9 years old.

all four reasons.
I started lifting after seeing a old muscle & fitness mag my dad had. It had shawn ray on the cover. after looking though the mag I want to be a pro bodybuilder. So I started lifting with a wieght set my dad had. It was a bench , barbell, and a some weights. The weights where the ones with sand in them. I still hope to be a pro one day. Next year i want to qualify for the nationals and compete in them.

I wasn't ever picked on... i'm tall.... i was pretty skinny... didn't want to do something just for some dumb girls... my main reason is that muscles look AWESOME... just plain and simple cool, i like looking at my muscles, flexing, and all that. And now it's an obsession
