You're young and ambitious, which is admirable. I only wish when I was your age (and looked very similar to you with very similar goals) that I would have stopped and appreciated what I had, and didn't always push so hard for more. My 4 shoulder surgeries and constant neck and hip pain are reminders of how I ignored all of that advice.

To think that a few days before my 22nd B day, that all I have left in my lifting life is maintenance is depressing.
I couldnt really care if the general public thinks I am crazy or will look unappealing. Hell I think 99% of the population looks unappealing, guess its a mutual thing.
I do not wanna die wondering if I maxed out my genetic potential, be it physical or mental. I wanna die knowing I achieved what god set as my limit, only so I could tell him that he underestimated my will.
