I used to be a really skinny guy (125-130lbs and 6'1-6'2 tall) and I got bullied because of it. I was weak and it was beginning to bum me out. So I started working out and at first I just wanted couple pounds more and after that a little more and more and more. I finally realized that the gym was it for me. I can't run because of bad knees and my joints are pretty bad overall so I always want to get stronger and make a stronger version of myself. I want to over come my difficulties. These days I'm 184lbs and I still have a long way to go. I love the feeling of getting more powerful.

I just want to look like a yoked motherf***er.  I always see girls going for the musclebound guys.  I also find bodybuilding fun so it isn't just a being shallow thing.  Plus I used to be really skinny and I've noticed that people treat me with more respect now that I have some decent size on me.  Also it helps my overall health.

To get faster in swimming, and break more records on my school record board. (I've broken one so far, and I'm just one second away on another event.)

If I get faster, I may even get a swimming scholarship.Double motivation (:

Besides swimming all the time, I do weights and I run and do other stuff to gain more muscle.

Another one of my goals is to get a 6 pack...not like hardcore woman body-builder 6pack but I would love a stomach like hers:

Edurance! I would prefer being able to run from a rapist till they keel over rather than running away fast and finding a hiding spot...

I am going to back pack from canada to latin America. I'm practicing hiking with everything ill be bringing (books food water clothes misc) for as long as I can, or for 12 hours, without really slowing down. I'm at 8 hours now, so I'm feeling OK about it.

running, I want to get back to doing 15 miles.

swimming.used to do 5 hours. I do 4 now. 2 more to go.

Speed, is not my first concern, endurance& alertness, are my primary goals. tho once I have the quantity down, perhaps ill pay attention to miles.

im already thin & toned, so I don't really have any body sculpting goals, except that which helps me gain endurance7 stamina. but otherwise its OK, on that front.

when I get back I'm going to play soccer. then ill deal with speed and power & agility..,

I want to gain muscle mass and get stronger because I need to be strong for my job. I also kinda want my body to look like this     because she has the perfect abs. I want to have actually a slightly more muscular body then her but still somewhat similar.

Alexias · Answer

I want to increase my endurance. I'm pretty strong muscle wise but going up the stairs calls for a breather especially during my off seasons. I am a sprinter but would want to run longer distances, maybe start with a 5k, half marathon then a full (well that's a dream of mine). My flexibility needs some working on, touching my toes is a pain.

c7777 · Answer

Notch down my half marathon time all the way down to one hr 20 min one day. Fastest time so far is one hr 26.

For strength and muscle.. I started at weighing 140 lbs. Now 160 two years later, although 2 inches taller. But Id like to get up to 170 lbs probably, and go from my current 9% body fat to 7.

ambertaylor · Answer

Increase my flexibility/range of motion as it's part of my job and I get paid to do that type of training but the training I do for that also happens to decrease my body fat percentage but overall I'd like a flatter stomach.

I am doing it to lose weight. Specifically 60 pounds. I have lost justabout 50 so far. Also been concerned about my overall health. Excess weight takes a toll on your body inmany ways.

Toned/leaned muscle. It's just a matter of getting back in there and trying to finish what I started. I've already gained some definition and burned off fat and gained strength, but other than that, I've got nothing.
