Diary of Muscle Kelly Part.1   Diary of Muscle Kelly     Hey all, my name is Kelly Bringums, my muscular awareness came at a very early age, although I wasn't involved in sports or anything athletic for that matter; I did flip threw the channels and see an occasional fitness competition or two on ESPN. At the time I was only 10 and didn't have any desire to get these muscles, but it was a matter of time till that all changed!             My mom and dad had gotten divorced when I was very young so I was home alone most of the time, due to my mom working 50 hour + week. So at 11 years old in the summer I had a lot of free time on my hands. One afternoon was in the basement going threw some of my old toys and I noticed an oddly shaped drapery in the corner, I pulled the cloth off the object and revealed my dads old weight machine. Filled with dust from years of nonuse I picked up one of the smaller dumbbells, (5lbs), and gave it a curl; much to my surprise I loved the strain it gave on my bicep! After finishing a set of 5 I felt pretty good about myself, and continued to explore the rest of the weights.             About 2 hours had passed, by this time my mom had come home and walked down to the basement. (Quickly covering the weight set) Mom: "Kelly, what on earth are you doing down here?" Me: "O, nothing mom, just getting a few of my old toys to play with=)" Mom: "Ok sweetie, lets go get something to yea"    With that, me and my mom left the basement.             The next day I got up to an empty house as usual, going threw my normal routine I was eating the cereal and watching TV in the kitchen, suddenly an infomercial came on about a new weight set, which made me remember all about yesterday, I had nearly forgotten! After seeing this girl's body with all cuts and definition, I new I wanted to look like that!      I ran downstairs and uncovered my treasure; I decided that I would get on a workout schedule. A week or so had passed since then, after finishing a workout a funny feeling came over me. Gazing into a mirror I pulled down my PJ bottoms, my legs looked very different than they normally did. There were bumps and lumps where there wasn't before. My thighs appeared to be swollen, I ran my hand across my thigh and the lumps felt hard and I realized that the lumps were my muscles. I never noticed that my legs actually had muscle before that moment. As my legs moved so did the lumpy but firm muscles. I turned to one side and saw that my calves were jutting out slightly. I bent my leg upward and my calf formed a muscular ball. Then I turned my back to the mirror and stood up on my toes, which caused my calves to bulge outward with muscle. A warm feeling surged through my legs as I took great pleasure in watching my muscles dance. Laying down I decided to do some cycle pumps and leg movements. My legs weren't rippling with muscles but they were taut and the muscles were visible. Astonishingly enough, the more I pumped my muscles the more they emerged. With a few minutes passing my legs glistened slightly with sweat as they warmed. Standing up I lifted my arm, I gave my bicep a flex or 2, and amazingly my bicep bulged into a small, round dome. I repeatedly flexed my arm; it was becoming firmer with each flex. I don't know why, but it felt very, very good to flex. Turning to the mirror I continued to explore my developing MUSCLES!!! Later that evening me and my mom were talking over dinner and I revealed to her that I was using dad's old weight set. Smiling she said, "Very nice dear", (thinking to herself I am sure the novelty will wear off in a couple a days). Well, 2 weeks had passed and the novelty had far from worn off, in fact I became obsessed with the weights. Everyday while other girls were still playing with dolls, I was in the basement pumping iron. All my clothes were already starting to feel much tighter on me as my body changed. By the time I had been lifting weights for 4 weeks my muscular definition was becoming more and more evident. My shoulders, biceps, and forearms were distinguishable. My legs were very taut and becoming shapely. My belly had become taunt and hard, if I flexed u could see an outline of my top 2 abs! By the end of the summer my workouts were becoming longer and more intense, with that my bodily muscles hardened at an accelerated rate. In the fall my workouts were now happening twice a day. I did my usual after school workout and also started doing short workouts during my lunch break, rushing home on the bus. My muscles grew at an astonishing rate; I was up to my 12th birthday and my biceps measured a hair under 14 inches. My thighs went from 15 inches to a solid 19 1/4 inches. And my calves, which went from 12 1/4 inches to 14 1/2 inches. Packing this into my 4'10 121lbs frame I was becoming quite the muscle girl! End part 1
