Lifting has changed my life so much. I have been lifting for 2+ years now and have loved every day of it, and when I leave, all I think about is my next lift and what I'm going to do. The gym is like a second home to me. If I had a bad day, I would go to the gym and forget about all the bad things going on that day and get a great workout in. When I started, I was very skinny, and since the first day I went, it has changed me in so many ways. I started bringing my friend, and we would go every day together. Going to the gym also impacted my personality very much, I became more social and happier ever since I started. I have met so many great people at my gym who have such interesting stories and have lived crazy lives.
