My name is Jesse Armando Correa... yes, that's right. Armando.
I was born in Fountain Hills, CA, but was raised in Mesa, Arizona. I'm 22 years old and I've been married for a little over a year to my wife, Anna. High school sweet hearts....kinda. No kids and no animals for the time being.
I work as a computer tech for a large international chain of hotels and am currently in school getting my degree for computer networking. I'm not sure what I want to do in life yet, but computers were my fall back option. I started in nutrition, and then, pharmacy, and have settled with this, though I think it would be sweet to be a co-owner of a gym someday. I want to get rich fast, yet I have no plan on how to do it.
I started lifting in 9th grade. Our "coach" started us on machines. My first experience with free weights came with the classic bench press when the bar came crashing down on my face... I lost a tooth. NICE! I lifted all through high school and had been taking Kenpo/Muay Thai since I was a little kid. I also wrestled my junior and senior years in high school. Once I graduated, my training partner moved to a different state and I didn't seem to have the drive to work out. 4-5 years later, I only worked out 2-3 times a year and had no longer been doing any kickboxing or Kenpo. After lurking in the Sherdog forums for awhile, I've gotten back the drive to workout and have been training since September, 2006. I plan to compete in a powerlifting comp in February, 2008.My main activities outside of lifting are watching football, playing Madden online and skateboarding. I also like boxing, MMA, and real wrestling and I love playing basketball... just not watching it. I'm a pretty lazy guy. Religion is a big part of my life, as well. I live my life by it and have never been better.
I do it because I can.
I can because I want to.
I want to because you said I couldn't.
