Hi guys, my name is Bill and I'm addicted to weight lifting.

In all seriousness..I'm 23 years old, a type 1 Diabetic, and have a couple bad habits; pack a day smoker and like to drink some beers with the guys 1-2 times a week. I began weight lifting in my teens and in high school, but never stuck with it. About 5 months ago I decided to persue a personal dream of mine to get in shape, get big and gain strength. I started out with only a barbell and 75lbs of total weight to work with at home. 3 weeks ago I finally joined a gym and thought it would be cool to join a community with others to share and talk about weight training/fitness. I'm 6'1 around 160lbs- more or less, I havent weighed myself in awhile, I've always been more of a hard gainer but never the extreme ecto-morph. My plan to achieve my my goals is to execute HEAVY compound movements and eat alot (healthy choices).

Welcome to the forum Bill. Great goals, and looking forward to seeing you make it happen.

Make yourself at home and feel free to toss up questions if you need any help.
