Greetings Wrong Planeters, Allow me to introduce myself!
My name is Sam, I'm a 25 year old Vancouver BC native. Being the nerd that I am; I rarely venture from my troglodytic caverns, to trifle with silly humans . My favorite things include: Science Fiction novels, Pen 'n' Paper gaming, Chess, Digital Art and Strength Athletics. I love a wide variety of music, but am particularly into: Industrial, Dance (From Drum & Bass, to IDM, to Techno and everything between!) and Metal (Death, Black, Doom, Gothic, Thrash, etc.).
I've got five years of weight room experience under my belt and have been a recreational Powerlifter, for two of those. I'm just two weeks away from making my debut in competition, at the BCPA Provincials and can't wait! This hobby has become my greatest passion and; as such, I've chosen to make a career out of it. My goal is to get my Personal Training business started, within the next year - and down the road, become a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist.
I was diagnosed with "High Functioning Autism" at age 10, which was also around the time that I realized how different from my peers I've always been. As I've grown up a bit (just a tiny, little bit), I've stopped trying to fit in. I really do feel as if I was born on the wrong planet, so I feel that this forum will be a good place for me. I look forward to getting involved in this community and getting to know some of you awesome people out there!!
