For what Reason Did you guys start training!?!?!?

Here is my story for those who want to hear it:

The reason why i started training was for many reasons. I got my gym membership the day i turned 16. My training was terrible as well as my diet and i was always the type of person who would go hardcore for like a month and then stop going for 6 months. Well my whole life i have always been what you call a fat kid. Not stupidly obese or anything but a large kid. Well about 2 years ago on my 20th birthday my girlfriend dumped me. She told me that i was disgusting and that i was totally gross and worthless. Well if that isnt a shot to the ego i dont know what is.

Anyways, after crying my eyes out for a few hours i decided to make a change. So the very next day i went to the gym. I got weighed and my bf% checked out ( i was 6'3 320lbs and 38% bf). I was shocked as hell but i was ashamed because i knew i would have to start out somewhere. So from that day on i have been training my ass off 5 days a week in the gym. I got down to 255lbs and about 17% bf. About 6 months ago i saw my ex-girlfriend at the club i used to bounce at and she was like oh my god, by the end of the night i had told her to fuck off and i took her best friend home a fucked the shit out of her. Now thats payback (gotta love it).

When i first started working out i worked out for the reasons except for myself. But eventually i said fuck it....im going to do this for myself and i dont give a rats ass what any body else thinks, as long as i feel good about myself then that is all i care about.

I am by no means where i want my body to be but it just gives me a goal to work hard for everyday i enter the gym. but ever since i started working out i have way more self confidence and a better self efficacy.

Lets hear some of your stories!!! Peace!!:fro:
 
i looked in the mirror at my scrawny body and thought how ugly it looked-i look much better now but i need to gain about 40 more muscle pounds, hehe :bawling:
 
With me also it was the fat thing. Everyone I met that I hadnt seen for ages all said I was putting the weight on. Even my parents kept commenting on it to me thinking I was not bothered. I was depressed as hell for month or so and kept on saying "ill diet next week" or "ill join the gym next week". I knew I was getting fat and I kept saying those 2 things for a few years up to that point. Anyways, it all came to a head when I went to Tenerife. I looked like a bloody beached whale lay on the beach soaking the sun... those pictures that were taken motivated me to get in shape. That and the plethora of attractive gals strutting along the beach (WOW).

I weighed about 15 stone then and that was about 5 months ago. My bodyfat must have been around 30-35%.

Now im under 13 stone and according to the callipers about 16-20% bodyfat. Still got some ways to go. I managed to put some muscle on AND loose fat which was good.

Im now at the point where ill probably post some before and after pics so u guys can see the transformation:)

STUBS
 
Because till my 15 years my older (but smaller) brother was beating me every day...

He was frustrated that his younger brother is taller...
 
few years ago when i was 17-18 , I had finished highschool but missed a few credits , I only had night classes so my life was pretty much boring and besides computer games and hot fudge sundea I didnt have much else to do.

Lost contact with friends and became a loner , I eventually got to 255 pounds at 6.3. I didnt look obese by any means , my kungfu teacher use to to make a reference to me that you dont want to pick up a fight with a guy like me ;)

but I knew I was fat , I had a lot of blubber and I didnt have much energy.


I picked up weights because I wanted to have something to do and to look better and have more energy. Now I havent looked back , been doing it for 1 year , 3 times a week every week.

in retrospective , I did alot of shitty exercises when i first started but thanks to the net I got some education in weightlifting and how the anatomy works.

seriously the net is the greatest fucking thing out there , just how were people supposed to learn how to do shit right ? My gym is full of people that only work beach muscles , maybe 3 hardcore ppl. Almost no ones does squats......without the net and in an environment like that I doubt I would have went very far with my first weightlifting exercises. Now I am at 200 but ill start swimming first and go to 190 or 185. :mix:
 
i'm only 18 and i've changed the way of life. in junior high, i was fat. about 5'9 190 all fat. i would get picked on much like a lot of people that posted their stories. i used to get shit like, "damn wes, what size bra do you wear" and comments like that, and i would take it. i wouldn't take my shirt off for nobody. i used to go to fast food restaurants and eat like six or seven cheese burgers. 8 grade i moved to hawaii. i homeschooled so i didn't have a social life so i really didn't care because i didn't have anyone to impress. freshman year rolled around and i followed in my brothers footsteps and joined the wrestling team. i wrestled at the beginning of the season at the 189 weight class. by the end of the year, i was down at the 140 class. i looked very sick at that time because i was so skinny. i had stretch marks on my hips because the popped out of my skin. the coach kept pushing me to drop weight when i didn't have any to drop. i would starve myself for a couple days before a tournament so i could make weight. sophomore year, i quit wrestling in the middle of the year because i beat our varsity guy in the 140 spot but i didn't get to wrestle the spot because he wanted the other guy in the spot because he was older. junior year, about the middle, i started to lift weights. i was about 6 feet at this time. i'm a very hard gainer. i am now out of high school and at 6 feet 175, i'm not big by any means compared to you guys. i am the biggest person in my family though. i've came a long way, but have a long way to go. with my new found friend, anabolics, i can now achieve my goals.
 
Yep wrestling will do that to you, conditioning is ridiculous, i wrestled in hs 180-189 as soon as i finished highschool i went to 210 because of the diet shift, and it wasnt fat , a few laters here i am at 225 :chomp:
 
yea, conditioning was just nuts with our team. our team was state champ material. i could have taken states by my senior year. i guarantee it. i hate my coach with a passion.
 
In 10th grade i was wrestling on one of the best hs teams in town that year, we had like 5-6 guys win state and a few 2nd :D and 3rd places, my god bro won state 3 years in a row then got 2nd senior year and got all cracked out so we dont talk
 
i almost went back senior year, then i hit my first sust 250 cycle and i said fuck it, i'm gettin big and not gonna have those fuckers dick me over like they did before. i'm fully devoted to getting big. my coach walked in my 6 period (had 2 weight training classes that year) and saw me repping 225 like it was cool and about shit his pants. i about rolled in the floor laughing cause he was doing everything he could to get me back. that bastard!
 
A lot of my boys had 2 weighttrainig classes, my schedule was ridiculous senior year, i was in class for a total of maybe an hour, i would just leave and my teachers wouldnt say shit nor would the renta cops, :D I grad in 98 Im feelin old
 
well, you went to a better school than me it sounds like. my school was currupt. you've heard about my wrestling coach. one of the vice principals there got thrown out for taking a students drugs and drug paraphanalia and keeping it for herself. we didn't have open campus, but me and my boys would leave at lunch as long as we brought the security guard that let us go something to eat. one of our security guards buys weed from one of my friends, other smoke in the bathrooms with the students. we had a nice campus, but was totally fucked up.
 
I fucked my knee when I was 13 and the doctors told me I'd never play sport agin.Being a pretty competitive kid, I said fuck that and my physio took me to a gym and showed me some leg exercises to do there a few days a week.
Eventually I got curious about what all the other machines ,benches and free weights were for.I watched what the older dudes at the gym were doing with them and later when there wasn't anyone around, I'd try and copy their strange movements.Fuck I must have looked funny, some little kid in this gym trying to push iron.

11 years later...............

dirty
 
Got bitten by the Iron Bug when I was 15 training for football. I used to do it for sports But now I'm getting to old for that shit so I'm just going to dedicate my time to weightlifting. I like to hear people talk about my body. heh. And I feel better when Im strong and powerful. Cant wait to hit that first cycle in Oct. sust and deca. :)
 
One day my mother said to me (while givin me one of those "worried mother looks"): Boy, skinny as you are you'll never have a date.

Now, if that's not a reason to start weightlifting I don't know what is... :D
 
STARTED OUT SENIOR YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL CUZ I WAS 5'4 210LBS LIKE 25% BF I WAS SO FUCKIN FAT AND EVERYONE USED TO MAKE FUN OF ME. EVERYONE SAID I WAS ALWAYS GOING TO BE FAT. WELL ITS NOW 4 YEARS LATER AND I JUST RECENTLY TOOK 1ST PLACE IN MY FIRST BODYBUILDING COMP. I GUESS I SHOWED THEM HUH? WHAT MAKES ME LAUGH IS THAT I SEE THESE FUCKERS ALL THE TIME AND NOW THEY KISS MY ASS CUZ I THEY ARE AFRAID ILL TAKE THEIR GIRLFRIEND FROM THEM. HAHA...
 
Grew up in Pittsburgh and in that town u have to play highschool football....its a religion there. The Pittsburgh area produced Johny Unitas, Joe Namath, Joe Montana, Danny Marino, and Jim Kelly, if u look at that list it is pretty astonishing!

I was way to thin to play on the team. So I started lifting and eventually gained enough size to compete on the team. We actually had a very good strength coach at our high school. I never made it to Pitt or penn state...but I did gain size in those four years!
 
I was skinny fat...

When I was in highschool, some girl said I looked like a Q-tip. That's when I realized that I was a muscless scrawn. I bought a cheap weight set, began throwing weights around, and tripled my calories. Since I didn't know shit about lifting, I ended up gaining about 35 pounds of pure fat. Yuck. I looked disgusting... skinny-fat. For a year following, I just ate cereal all day. I lost the fat and begain a pushup/pullup workout. After a couple months, I actually saw some muscle, my first. I was still a skinny bastard, being about 145 lbs at 6 feet. Then I discovered HIT and brought myself to 160. Then I finally realized that I'd get nowhere without squatting and got myself to about 175. From 145 to 175 took a couple years. Then I juiced my first cycle and got to just under 200 lbs. That was two years ago, and since then, I went through a period of stopping everything. I'm now on my way back up.
 
Low self esteem during high school and lack of bitches. I was a pudgy fuk. Put two and two together. Funny thing is that now that Ive transformed my body i score a chic at least every other week. So whenever u hear a chic say that looks arent important to girls...tell her to shut the fuk up cus shes a lyin ho.


CHEERS!!
 
When things look completely fucked up its the only thing to turn to whether its school, women, work, etc...

The Gym is my sanctuary, my therapy....

Oh yeah and you get alot more putang.. ;)

I also fall into the skinny guy with glasses category, who got dumped for bigger guys in high school. While in college, skinny guys still get laid, but in the real world, muscles are a huge advantage. I'm still not big enough, but I am getting more camel-toe than ever. If everything goes as planned, the ho's will cum faster after each cycle. Sucks to be the ex-girlfriend now, bitch!! Heheheh:nerd:
 
I origianlly did it to imoress a certain girl. It worked :D But after that, I stayed with it. I now do it because of improved self-confidence, a way to relieve stress, and more attention from the opposite sex. :horny:
