first let me say that I did not know a woman until I was 20 years old. Second, I did not taste alcohol until I was 22, and did not know what a pizza was. My life since I was 6 was about boxing and that was it, I knew no other life until I was 23. Even though I had an uncle who was a very powerful democratic leader in the state of Mass. I grew up not knowing that I was poor, I would see my uncle and not know how wealthy he really was, I thought that everybody lived like me. The meaning of that story was to tell you that I was not soft, I trained hard because that is all I knew how to do in my life, I knew no other way. Thus the first lesson for you: want to get in shape? train hard! That is lesson #1. I found God after I stopped boxing at 23, actually God found me just when I needed him. I lost my faith at age 27 when the devil sent an agent of his into my life, and I have been slowly developing a relationship with God again since my fall from grace. I am slowly but surely getting there day by day. Thus, lesson #2, have faith! Those are the first two lessons of getting into supreme physical condition.
