When I was 26 years old I was in the best shape of my life. I was just finishing up with the Army and started to get serious with my current wife Cherie. I weighted 135 pounds and was in great shape. I had just achieved Master Fitness in the Army. That means I exceeded the PT points set for my age. I had over 300 points. Once I got out and started to live with Cherie, work and my relationship came first and doing anything that required any physical came last. I started slowly sinking into my current state. I did not care, but kept up that same life style. In 1998 on a trip to Mexico, I purchased some Steroids. (a lot of them)When I got back I started going to a Gym and taking my Steroids. I ran out a few months down the road. I had exploded in my arms and chest. I was huge. Since I no longer had what was driving me to the gym, I fell back into my life style of not being active. Before I could believe it I was now over 200 pounds and feel horrible.
I have 2 kids and one on the way. I know if I do not take charge of the way I look, I will not be here for them. That is why I created this site. I am not going to hold this in anymore. I need people to know the truth and is that I am serious about getting fit and being healthier.
I hope you enjoy the site and please drop me a line with you thoughts and words of encouragement.
Thanks Todd

I just wanted to say that we are behind you and believe in you 100%!! We love you no matter what but we are also very proud of you for wanting to get healthy!! We all want you here as long as possible that's for sure. I still say it's not too nice to get in shape when I'm pregnant (you know I'm teasing). You will just get in shape before I will and that's ok too, and I will have a workout buddy when I'm able--that's always a plus. We are here for you and support you 100% with whatever encouragement you need--you know that. Love always Cherie & boys!!
