What inspired you to start bodybuilding?

I am just curious to find out why everyone started lifting weights! Mine was due to being a smaller kid growing up and getting picked on a lot in school. I had no parents to look to! (foster kid) So I turned to the only friends I had, my comics. I read em all! One of the many foster homes I bounced around had a dear older gentleman who had hundreds of vintage comics. I was immediately hooked! Still looking at comics makes me wanna HULK out (literally)
Some of my inspirations were:
Captain America (Found out there really is a Super soldier serum!)
Wolverine: Short, stocky full and vascular machine of death!
Spider man: hahaha ok not really (come on..he is just an annoying side kick)
GI Joe: everyone had this one haha
Dragon Ball Z: Explains my profile name and picture...always wanted to look like a cartoon character!

Whatever your goals may be, or however long you have been trying to reach them just remember that everyone starts somewhere. I am just starting my journey, But I am glad to have brothers in Iron across the world.
COMMENT or REPLY how you get your motivation

Just random thoughts in my head...thanks for reading!!

For me I started very very young. I was introduced to it by a brother of a childhood friend who was a World-class power lifter at the time. At that age being very impressionable I figured I'd give it a go and immediately fell in love with it and found that I had some sort of natural talent for it.
