Before starting my current training program, I had a specific objective in mind. I am an armed security officer protecting a private Christian school and a church. Both are located inside a shopping mall. I have to be physically prepared for a wide variety of threats and emergencies. I... -
I was the skinny kid growing up. I started lifting weights in high school to pack on size and ate everything I could lay my hands on. Every bodybuilding magazine I read back then preached heavy training for big muscles and light training for definition, so I went “heavy”... -
Ana and I married in 2012 after more than four years of dating. We had both endured previous marriages that failed miserably, and we needed time to heal and grow. There was no pressure from her or me to rush things along. We just enjoyed our time together without... -
I remember when I got my first jackknife. The exact date is a little foggy, but I do recall it was also the day I got stitches for the first time. I was out of diapers by then, give or take a few years, which was a suitable milestone... -
