When I started out back in June 2011, I was not working out for almost 2 years after having about 10 surgeries on my left arm due to nerve damage, an open reduction internal fixation break of my humerus, gun shot wound from a M16 assault rifle, and staph infection in my left elbow that almost went gangrene. I was 225 lbs. 25% body fat.
I'm still in the process of my goals. I'm now down to 170 lbs., 9% bodyfat. I want to get to 7% at 170 lbs.

If you don't mind me asking, how did the shot from the M16 happen? Accident at the range? Where did it impact you?
80% diet and supplements...I'm getting the eating right thing dailed in. But I don't use any supplements. What did you use and why do you think it helped? In what way?
In any case way to go, you look great.0 -
