Q
How Did You Get Started?

When I was 14-years old my two older brothers always worked out and they inspired me to start working out to gain muscle. I have always been a skinny kid and I wanted to change that, so I read and read articles on Bodybuilding.com to further my knowledge and be the best of my ability in and outside the gym.
