So it begins…
This is my first post. I have a few goals with this site:
First, I want to get some pictures taken and load them up for reference.
Secondly, I’d like to make some contacts and hopefully friends with some of this community. I feel the extra support and advice will come in handy, as I feel I am a unique case and would have a helluva time trying to figure out some things on my own.
And third, to keep myself motivated in order to achieve my goals, even if it means writing to myself.
Details about my health: I have a heart condition called Tetrology of Fallot which has netted me a large scar at the left latissumus dorsi (dividing it in half laterally) and two open-heart scars down the middle of my chest and partway into the abdomen. A large vein was removed from my left arm, and it is smaller in size than my right arm in all regards - muscular and skeletal. I was born very underweight but not premature, and consequently I am in the bottom 3rd percentile for skeletal size, as determined by the measure of my elbow joint. At least, according to a medical site. But I am quite small, regardless. And I hate it with a passion.
I think all that above gives me a better reason to bodybuild. At the time of this writing I am 114 lbs. I will get my measurements in soon.
Cheers,
Tim
