“Remember where you started to appreciate where you're going..

I was a hardgainer whose metabolism and genetic cards weren't meant for gaining. My mom's side are all tall and lanky and the sperm donor's are short and squat, so it was anyone's guess how I'd turn out. It wasn't until I was in grad school in Gainesville (of all appropriate places) that I found how much I was paying in fees for a gym I wasn't using. So I scoured bodybuilding.com and cobbled together a workout routine geared toward tall hardgainers and really committed myself to a meal plan and protein shake routine throughout the day. Within 4 months of my "Frequency and Consistency" mantra, I put on 30lbs of beef, noticeable enough that my professors (and students) both noticed and commented: "You've completely transformed since last semester! From Twink to Bear!" "Hey teach, you got a big ass booty for a white boy!" Little did they know I was just getting started. 😈
