My last competition was held on September 20th 2008 where I took first place in the NGA Northwest Natural Lightweight Division. Previous to the competition I had always worked out in the evening and never considered changing to mornings as I figured it would be impossible to get out of bed at 5:45 AM. Fortunately a friend at work talked me into giving it a shot and I must say it was a very hard transition for me. I had to change my lifting partner, time of workout and life schedule, but in the end it was well worth it and I will continue to work out mornings. It jumps starts my day and allows me to utilize my testosterone levels. As males we produce most of our testosterone in our sleep, so upon waking up needless to say it helps promote muscle building to the best of our abilities. And we must not forget working out in the mornings actually makes you 20% smarter and more efficient! So if you’re looking for ways to improve your work ethic and overall lifestyle this is a healthy option.    

I work for Bodybuilding.com as the Product Owner for the community. This month my team and I will be releasing a new BodySpace feature. BodyGroups! We are very excited to release version one to our customers. It will be an introduction version for January 2009, but don’t worry many more exciting things coming in 2009. So stay tuned for the latest blog entries.
