Share Your Stories! How did you get into fitness?

I know its been over a year since someone replied, but thought i would post anyway.

I got into fitness i think just by wanting to be physical better, and got inspiration from a lot of people, i really want slightly visable abdominals. Oh yeah and by having nothing to do.

I started wanting to get into fitness becouse 1-its fun.2-it takes stress off me when I'm mad about something,3-sick and tired of all the bullies that take advantage of me.4-my mom said one day my metabolism will catch up to me so I want to be prepared for when that day comes!

if this is the guy who wrote the truth about building muscle, try to google Sean Nalewanyj

I started working to improve my health over all, I also was starting to get high blood pressure and I prefer not to do meds..
 
As a hasbeen extreme athlete, never getting my big shot, I sat on my couch watching T.V. at 240+, with a 40 inch (or so) waiste, and saw the finish to a marathon.

I saw the look on their faces and I wanted it.

It took me two years to complete my first one.

I just wanted to take advantage of my bodies potential instead of shoving crap in my gut every day. I look around when I am out walking to work etc and see all the out of shape people, and it makes me sad. I don't want to be like that, I mean no offence to people though. It is also more socially acceptable to be overweight these days but its just not what I want.

I also want to improve for my girlfriend too in ways because I nice lean muscular body will be much nicer for her, not that she has ever complained before lol.

Also I got sick of looking like this:

Man I make myself sick! haha.

Oh also I want a gorgeous body to match my face :eek:

Oh and this isn't the reason I got into it but once I did I have noticed I am always wanting to challenge myself every single day. To push myself to lift that little bit extra each time, or to run that little bit faster and further. Even when I feel like giving up I find the strength to continue fighting on. Not just during exercise but in life in general. It really helps to make you a better person, giving me more integrity and being more confident in everything that I do.

Oh and always finishing what I started :)

I have Jessica Alba on my other wall though and she isn't covered up ;) I prefer a more curvy lady myself though Oh yeahhhhh :cool:

Man my boobs look sick in that picture haha! Yes BOOBS, I don't even consider that a chest in that pic, god knows when that was from anyway. I just found it.
 
Mine's quite simple, I decided last summer that it would be my last of being the skinniest guy on the beach. I joined a gym, came here for a few pointers and the rest is history.

I now love it and want to step things up a level :)
 
I was a fat kid, being fat was only interesting for so long... you know my entire life. So I started lifting to look a bit better and because I dindt' like to run but wanted to do some physical activity.

I'm still kinda fat actually, but whatever. When I actually got realyl into lifting and started eating less, I managed to go from 205lbs. to 170 lbs. Which I thought was the coolest thing in cool land. Now I've started "bulking" and I've gained about 5 pounds since June.

Oh yeah, and lifting is one of those activities that you improve in over time and any time I can see myslef improve I like to.
