Background
I have been in the fitness industry for 15 years. Ironically, an eating disorder pushed me to pursue the fitness quest. My illness didn't last long with the positive effects resistance training was providing.
With the persuasion of others, I attended a local bodybuilding show, and from that day on, I was a bodybuilding addict. I began reading magazines, books, talking to people, etc. trying to find out as much as I could on the sport of bodybuilding.
I have seven consecutive years of competing under my belt and a lot of personal experience. I have used nutritional and training trial and error tactics to see what produces the most muscle and fat loss. I have come to the simple conclusion that you can't reinvent the wheel. The foundation for a solid and muscular body is maintaining good health, quality nutrition, intense training, proper form, sufficient supplementation, and adequate rest.
If you have made the decision to get fit, healthy, gain muscle, lose fat, make a body transformation, or any other fitness related goal, then read my latest articles. Knowing the facts can help you stay ahead of the game and feel better about yourself.
