Why I Got Started
dot

I had been battling weight issues for a long time. I had ballooned to over 330 lbs and had started worrying about my health. Then after Christmas my mother had heart troubles. I saw her in the hospital and it scared me really bad.

I looked at myself and for the first time saw myself as I really was; fat, out of shape and a heart attack in waiting. Until that day I had never looked at my self as anything other than fit, hot and ready for anything. What a rude awakening to see yourself for what you really are.

Charles Hill's Progress.

I have 2 young boys and they are my power. I never want to let them down or hurt them. After seeing my mom in the hospital I told my self that my boys will not see me like that if I can help it. I went to the gym and have not looked back.

How I Did It
dot

Weight training and diet. I have done very little cardio. Lifting weights and trying to always go heavier than the time before gives me motivation. I might not be the strongest or most ripped man in the gym but I can be the hardest working man in the gym.

Suggestions For Others
dot

Stay committed and focused. Set goals.

Write every thing down. Write down your exercises sets and reps.

Write down everything that goes in your mouth.

DON'T GET DISSCOURAGED.

Don't judge your gains or goals off other people.

Get a personal trainer.

Surround your self with successful people. For me not knowing any really healthy or successful bodybuilders or weight lifters. I found them where in magazines like Ironman, Flex, Muscle & Fitness.

I took the advice the workout tips supplement tips and recipe to heart. I used the advise to I found in these magazines to set my goals and my workout routines.
