I have continually
worked out since I was a freshman in high school but it wasn't
serious or with any focus. I had always wanted to compete in a
competition but didn't think it was ever feasible, so I continued to
just "work out." I was basically in the gym with friends just
slinging iron. Finally, through proper nutrition a solid workout
plan and a determination that I found somewhere deep inside I made
the decision to step onstage and just see exactly what I could do.
