How Did You Get Started?
I got started in 1996. A car accident had left me with a fractured sternum, 2 broken ribs on each side, front and back, an open gash on the left side of my jaw, lip, and the inside of my mouth. I also had a head injury.
After laying around for about a month or so, I got the bad case of the boredoms. So I tried to do pushups and failed. Doing one pushup was a task in it's self. I grew frustrated and started reading on how to make myself stronger.
Flex Wheeler and Bruce Lee were my motivators. Flex was in a car accident too, and Bruce Lee had a lower back problem due to doing good mornings. He was told he wouldn't fight again much less throw a kick the way he had once before. I began reading on what exercises Bruce had done.
I then started attempting pull-ups and walking so I could breathe better. Doing pull-ups wasn't so hard, since I weighed around 135lbs. After a month or so, I was able to do a few pushups. Watching Flex Wheeler in his shows that used to air on the sports channel, that got me raring to go!

What Supplements Have Given You The Greatest Gains?
I would have to say the 2 products I have been using as of late has been the Hemorush by NutraBolics and the 1-Andro Rx by IronMagLabs. For the sheer pump and fat burning of the Hemorush and the mass and strength of 1-Andro Rx. My gains have been through the roof!
And if I may, my sponsor swoll-up.com, also has an awesome line of supplements that kick ass, the one I use right before my workouts is called swoll-02; they also have a great clothing line to.
Right now I have been using the whole line by NRG-X Labs, the CEE 3000, the Beta-MaXX, and the TREN-13-Ethyl, are a stack in which I'm using for my May show.
Why Do You Love Bodybuilding?
I love body building because it basically gave my life back to me. I love how it makes me feel when I need to de-stress and unwind. We all know how weird that sounds, pushing iron around or doing a step mill or tread mill, but everyone can agree with me when I say, going to the gym or working out at home does a lot for the mind frame, let alone the body.
I love seeing the progress I've made and the gains I hope to make while working out. I had a goal a few years ago, and that was to weigh 235lbs. Well I surpassed that and hit 240lbs. It wasn't easy getting there and it sure wasn't easy trying to maintain the weight, but I love it, the life style, the cool people I have met here on BodySpace...
There is one person who has made a great change in my life, my future wife, she has been by my side and I met her here, fitdiva83.
Here is a list of names of the nice people I have grown to admire here on BodySpace:
They are part of the Iron CoaliNation:
RafMorris37, uncgred06, GoGetter, mer-der-ah, Blkmuscle40, AlliGirl, BRUTUSPLAC, focus101, blkprince09, tcc_mckenzie, maunaloa, BugNic, MsFitFern, thgirlnxtdr, growingpains, niknak32, fitnblnde5, Making_A_Change, etelka, china2u, Carla Hampshire, ConnieChung, dieseldru
What Motivates You To Follow A Healthy Lifestyle?
What motivates me? Having a healthy heart, and body parts that still move in time with each other. And the fact, "We are only young as we feel."
What Made You Want To Achieve Your Goals?
Like I said before, being able to do one push up after the car accident. And after being able to do that everything I want do, I can do!

What Are Your Future Bodybuilding Plans?
My future plans for bodybuilding? Well I would love to do a show and qualify for the Arnold Classic, if not, stay in the life style of helping others achieve their goals!
What One Tip Would You Give Other Bodybuilders?
When it comes to bodybuilding, always listen to your body, be it food, rest or your workouts. When it comes to working out, leave the ego at the door. Male or female this applies to you. We all have had that one moment where we wanted to show off some exercise that we could do with ease.
Who Are Your Favorite Bodybuilders?
Bruce Lee, even though he wasn't a bodybuilder per say, Flex Wheeler, Victor Martinez, Dorian Yates, Mike Mentzer, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Shawn Ray, Trey Brewer, Eric Fankhouser, Paul Dillett, and Bill Grant.

What Features Do You Use On Bodybuilding.com?
Ah the features, the body scale even though my body hasn't changed that much, even if by a few pounds. I have to keep checking it to make sure my waist doesn't get any bigger.

What is PROEdge? It's the Professional Edge that you'll get from the unparalleled one on one attention provided by bodybuilding and fitness expert, Victor Munoz, and his team of personal trainers.
Munoz, a native of Cuba, is no come-lately to personal training. While it has become the trend that everyone in New York has a personal trainer (along with a shrink) these days, Munoz, was among NYC's first fitness professionals. He began shaping professional athletes, body builders, celebrities, dancers and regular folk, more than twenty years ago, back in the days of Jack Lalane. A certified trainer and member of the International Sports Medicine Association, Munoz does not limit his work to the gym. He's also a skilled martial artist who teaches classes in eastern self-defense.
His guidance in weight training and nutrition has pumped to physical perfection several leading male and female body builders who have gone on to capture prestigious titles in competition* and has provided a rehabilitative comeback for others, plagued with health problems. For those in between - men and women who've needed to shed 20 pounds, tone up and look their best, Munoz has gotten them in the zone in record time.
When Diva Diana Ross needed to get in shape for her last national tour, she called Victor Munoz. Victor Munoz is the trainer that other trainers, like Armando Pena and Leo Pacheco, come to for their fitness sessions. PROEdge currently caters to a diverse group of clients; helping writers and Wall Street brokers build up their physical strength after a long day of working out their minds, making sure the doctors, actors and pro baseball players under its charge, stay healthy and happy.
The PROEdge motto is "built to last."
Beyond being a fitness guru to some of New York's celebrities, fashionistas, and media personalities, Victor Munoz is a teacher. His goal is to teach all of his clients, regardless of their age or level of physical fitness, how to eat well, and how to live better, healthier lives. "Its what I love to do," says Munoz, whose style blends the Zen philosophy of patience and quiet strength with the passion of a gung ho master trainer.
