HOLY CRAP-Where have I been?!
Holy Crap, between christmass break where I left to see my parents, and a new semester at school, I have not been on this site in ages.
I do have great news though, I somehow have managed to increase my weight, to 185 pounds with only 0.3% increase from my original percentage. I am very happy with this, especially because it is about a 12 pound increase in weight from early november. I believe this is due to three reasons.
1) I was an endurance athlete before, and was holding far less muscle mass than my body naturally wants to. My father and brother are both rather thick, the males in my family tend to be of "sturdy stock" and well I was about 60 pounds less than my brother…who is the same height of me, haha.
2) I work at a gym as a trainer. The fact that I work at a gym 6 days a week, and a supplement store for the other day helps a lot. I can’t not work out, I see my clients and other members of the gym, and as a trainer I need to be a good role model, plus it is so easy to do a workout when I am already there.
3) I also have a lot of stomach issues, which ensures I eat a rather clean diet. As I tell all my clients diet is 70% of the results you get, and well with a strong diet I managed to make the changes I want.
It’s good to be back!
Live to Lift!

In addition to the thick relatives, I also have genetic ties to the big-boned ones as well…..Yep, it’s a constant challenge…

I have some big meat wrapped around my little bones. Does that count?
