About

So here I am, where to start?
I am a veteran of no war in the USMC, a proud father to an ever growing young boy, a loving husband to my wife and a caring pet owner to my two dogs. Currently, I am working as a LPN and debating about changing careers.

This blog is here initially to document my progress on weight training. A tool to help motivate myself and share with others. Beware that random thoughts may be posted from time to time.
My Family

USMC Days

My Dogs.
My Sheltie “Anakin” and Doxie “Daphne”

I also have a YouTube Channel where I upload most of the lifting I film so I can critic it after my workout. This helps in improving my lifts by seeing what I have done right/wrong at the time. You can find my YouTube Channel here: http://www.youtube.com/user/Kilim13.

Another site I use is BodyBuilding.com. I input most of my monthly body measurements, progress pics and lifts in here. Just another site I use as it has an easy way to view my data in strength training. You can find my BodySpace here: http://bodyspace.bodybuilding.com/Kilim/.

Also have a FaceBook page here: http://www.facebook.com/mannix.castro and a Twitter account here: https://twitter.com/#!/MannixCastro if you want to follow me.

I also try to log my food intake when I can at http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/Kilim.
