What is your why?

I used to watch wwf (yes wwf not WWE lol) as a kid and I loved it along with the original American gladiator, I always wanted to be strong like the women! Growing up throughout high school I was fit and didn't have to really work too hard for it. At 18 I moved out on my own and got pregnant, I thought I'd bounce back boy was I wrong. I spent from age 18 to 25 being fat as fuck. After finally having enough I lost a lot of weight naturally. Never got into lifting so much but loved running. After a few twists and turns I gained 50 back. After re losing that it was time for me to be done yo-yoing and make a transformation, I just want to be strong, look good and hey maybe one day I'll be a WWE wrestler or mma fighter...who knows lol

Lol you my friend are crazy. Fighting in anger, or defense is one thing. Stepping in the ring for 'fun' is insanity. I used to box, used to do Karate and Jui Jitsu. Getting hit would piss me off and trigger something. I'm too old for that now. Hit me and I'm grabbing for something that sounds like thunder and hits you at 900fps.

I used to stay with my grandparents over the summers and I remember when I'd get up for breakfast my grandpa would be coming in from Running and lifting in their garage. To most that may not sound very moto but he Was a Vietnam vet who lost his leg.

I have a few injuries myself, however none like that. When I see my brother's in arms missing limbs in the gym I thank them for their service and let them know if I could I'd gift them my own extremity. They thank me and say it's all good. Often times we had already accepted the risks associated with our chosen profession, I know I had. There is a resiliency amongst warriors, however sadly many, often the young, or non combat arms personnel have issue adapting to the loss and take their lives. I escaped multiple tours basically unscathed and am fortunate for it. Close calls, almosts and goose eggs all have one thing in common... they don't fucking count. I encourage everyone to thank the injured vets (no, not all of us deserve the same thanks sadly as some of us have never had to put it all on the line and I've seen plenty opt out of the opportunity to my disgust... just my opinion/observation) and to remind current service members that their profession is just that a profession. There is no 9 to 5 in conflict and they have sworn an oath to protect and defend, not for my dumb ass, but for the rest of America and all that we represent, for their brothers/sister beside them fighting the good fight. The 1st and the 15th are merely bonuses for the honor of serving... not mandatory compensation no matter what they think. Fuck with my flag, you fuck with The 44 and I punch back. Your 'Why' by far is the most motivating reason by far brother hands down.
Retired, or not I'd kill, or be killed behind The Red, White and Blue. I don't know why I'm so fucking mad right now... blame it on The Corps.
