    Because it is cheaper than buying a new, fatter wardrobe.

    Because I theoretically have abdominal muscles that I'd like to see proof of.

    Because it is the best way to forestall the progression of my arthritis.

    Because it releases endorphins that combat depression.

    Because I like food, and working out keeps me from hating food instead.

    Because I would like to hear "Oooh!" rather than "Ewww!" if my shirt is off in public.

    I Train Hard because;


    .... it is just awesome !! I love strength training and pushing my body to failure ... you don't know just how awesome you are, until you push yourself to failure, and then go beyond .....

    .... starting strength training at a fairly young age (14-15yrs old) taught me early on that you never quit, you never give up, you always keep pushing, you push beyond what your brain tells you you can do, you push through that impossible task (next rep, extra set, bleak situation, ect...), because you CAN do it, you CAN get there .....
    and you WILL do it, and you WILL get there if you just keep pushing yourself, and never quit or give up.....
