hello everyone my story begins around 4 years ago at the age of 17... I was weighing around 236 lbs at my heaviest and standing at 5"4'. I decided I needed to change my life around because I was heading down the wrong path... I got a gym membership at a local bodybuilding... I instantly fell in love with the sport... Long story short I dropped down to 130 lbs in a matter of 12 months (fast I know) and built myself up to 170 with decent muscle. Now I plan on competing in about 1.5 weeks in my first bodybuilding show... That about sums it up!!! Add me on IG: kyle4787 . Twitter: @jeffordsallday .. And most of all add me on here to see my diary and what I eat. Here are before and after pics

    Originally started my fitness journey by monitoring my macros and running 5 days a week with 3 days of weight training. Now since I've gotten a lot more knowledge in fitness and nutrition I still monitor macros but I've cut down running to walking 5 days a week for 30 mins and weight training 6 days a week currently.
