Background

I remember being over 300 lbs and one day I looked in the mirror and didn't like the person looking back at me. I had all this information in me but for some reason I refused to use it on myself. I decided it was time to make a change. This is when I started to experiment on myself. I lost over 100 pounds in 1 year using the ideas I came up with. Unfortuantely it was also lean mass that I lost, not just fat. I went to a measly 165 pounds. I had guys asking me if I was dying of cancer. Remember the guy who the bully would kick sand in his face while on the beach? I looked like that.

I got tired of everyone making snappy remarks about my size. After about 3 years of this (I was able to keep the weight off), I decided to see if I could use the training technologies that I was taught and learned through self-trials. I became 225 lbs within 2 years time at 8% body fat. Being that I like to experiment so much I wondered how far I could take it. Within the next years I would eventually reach my weight that I am right now, 245 lbs. I have been training for over ten years now and plan on continuing unless something severe happens.

Married to my loving wife for 19 years. I have 3 kids; 2 boys and 1 girl. My favorite thing is spending time with my litle baby girl. I would really have to say I enjoy teaching people new things, and I really enjoy using myself as a lab rabbit for new ideas I come up with.

Occupation: Personal trainer, currently training young teens to be the biggest and best.

Musician, lead guitarist of the rock band Tumblin' Dice.

Studied exercise physiology and kinesiology.

Currently doing extensive research on the muscle fibers and how to recruit the maximum amount, also, on how to avoid exercise induced injuries and how to strengthen the weak areas of the body that is often overlooked.

Studied Keto diets extensively.

My favorite motto is, "If I don't know the answer, I will find it".
