Hey guys I'm Harris, great to meet you!
Hey guys! My name is Harris, I'm 21, soon to be 22 (on the 25th of May) and I'm from Perth, Australia.
I am currently studying a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Animation and Game Design, but I am also doing my Cert 3 and 4 online in Fitness so that I can start a training business.
I love health and fitness, and in particular Bodybuilding and Powerlifting. I played sports since I was very young, football and cricket mostly. But I started lifting weights when I was 14 and fell in love with it straight away, becoming hooked to the progress.
Last year I competed in my first Natural Men's Physique Bodybuilding competition
I am planning on competing again in 2018, and potentially competing in my first Powerlifting meet towards the end of the year, or start of 2018. The two types of competitions vary in that Powerlifting is based on strength, specifically in the Squat, Bench Press and Deadlift. Highest total combined weight of the three lifts wins, and athletes are split up into weight classes. Where as Bodybuilding placings are determined by judges based on certain criteria, normally being more muscular and lean.
I plan to start a fitness blog, inviting people from all walks of life to engage in some sort of physical activity, as we enter a more technologically based world I believe it is of increasing importance that people remember to exercise. Not only does exercise yield massive physical and long term health benefits, but the benefits to the mind and outlook on life are extraordinary. I personally brought myself out of drug addiction and depression off purely weight training and pushing myself to the limit.
I am also extremely interested in Gaming! I mostly enjoy RPG and Strategy based games, either on PS4 or PC.
The last game I finished on PS4 was Nioh which I absolutely loved, I'm now playing Nier: Automata which I also love, and just recently started Dawn of War III on PC. I will also potentially write some game reviews on games I play in the future, because I know I personally love reading game reviews before I purchase a game.
If you guys have any fitness related questions in the meantime I'll be happy to answer them!
Otherwise thanks for reading and I invite you guys to follow me!

I have always been a clean eater, but I have started Since Dec 2016 working out consistently three to four days per week, lifting weights. I turn 41 in August and I'm planning to see how far I can get by then :) Yay for taking care of your physical body ! It's so rewarding and I feel that my stress levels are completely gone after a good sweaty workout
