Hey folks!
I posted just a few times before I started getting some really nice PMs from the fantastic people on this board, welcoming me and asking me for more info on myself and whatnot. I was encouraged to start an intro thread (duh why didn't I think of that)
Some things about me
*I am 24 years old and live in Memphis
*I love books, articles, and studies and am always learning about the science behind physique transformation and sport performance
*I started competing in fitness competitions at the age of 18 and turned pro at the age of 21
*I am into sketch art, I draw some pretty realistic portraits. I need to do one of Urijah and send it to him
*I recently started training in muay thai, jiu jitsu, and boxing and I will probably no longer compete in fitness shows
*I love a good time. I live a very healthy lifestyle but still know how to break it down
*I love dancing
*I like wearing weird hats
During my preparation for my most recent (and possibly last) contest I started watching the fights on VS and Spike almost every night. I had watched it a lot before, but this time, watching made me want to pursue a different type of training, as the training for contests can be very redundant. Shortly after the show I started at a really good school here in Memphis and have been going as often as I can, sometimes twice a day.
I would love to see a professional fight in person sometime in the near future!
