Hello my name is Walker “The Big Dogg†Runnels,I had/have Spastic CP occurring at birth , with the left side being dominant it's about 80% normal usage on the left and 20% on the right side. Also, at a very young age I grew to idolize martial arts, (MMA) Bodybuilding, Boxing, and other sports. From those days on, I always wanted to be an athlete, and so at age 16 for my Birthday dad brought me a home gym. He thought I would use it off and on no big deal, but nothing like I did, I’ve got a new one now also thanks to family (One of my sets of Aunts and Uncles haha). I've been training for 6-7 years now, and am going to do so for the rest of my life. I am always looking for new exercises ways and methods to improve my physique, strength, health, and just overall well- being. I love Bodybuilding and really love Wheelchair bodybuilding because it's a sport I can do and someday maybe even excel at.Where to begin? Well, It certainly means a lot to me for the sport of Wheelchair Bodybuilding to exist and become well known and when I'm around my fellow bodybuilders (both able-bodied and disabled athletes) I feel proud and at ease like I never have before except around close friends and family. I believe the reason for this is a profound one and it is that Bodybuilders, or at least the vast majority of them, feel that, when they have a weak or lagging body part, such as Abs, quads, calves or whatever the case may be, they see that as a kind of disability or, at the very least, an encumbrance to achieving their dreams and goals. So, the able-bodied bodybuilders, much like their wheelchair counterparts, choose to fight through and find ways to overcome their weaknesses (both mentally and physically) and become better individuals overall in life and bodybuilding because of it and something exists a preserving and conquering fabric that weaves us all together as brethren regardless of any other factors. And, because the able-bodied bodybuilders are aware that the wheelchair bodybuilders are trying so hard to emulate and be like them in many ways and become masters of our bodies and most often in an attempt to do so we wheelchair bodybuilders employ inventive methods, adapted exercises, and determined mindsets that are just as unwavering and powerful as the Bodybuilders and bodies we see, adore, and desire, and because the able bodied competitors see the hunger in our eyes, a true blazing inferno that only with death will ever be put out, they feed it as best they can with confidence boosting words and encouragement. When the able-bodied bodybuilders stop and acknowledge that hunger and feed the flames, Wheelchair Bodybuilders meet their gaze and often reply with a simple "thank you;" but behind that thank you ,we are disguising a deep appreciation for the people that are willing to give a part of the spotlight and welcome us to be a part and share in such a priceless gift with all of them and I'm not afraid to admit this, for me it's also a much needed outlet. I love it.Next, the cheers that were for me/us will be forever ingrained in my soul because, besides a few times that were and still are memorable rights and steps so to speak on my way to finding myself and becoming a man, all the other times I heard cheers like that they were inside my head and never as a handicapped 105.8 lbs. Walker but as Walker the Boxer or as Walker the MMA Fighter things I cannot be right now. But now I've finally found my place as Walker the Wheelchair Bodybuilder/ Bodybuilder, and I couldn't be more at peace about the past or more excited about the present and the future than I am right now as. After all this time, the cheers are real, and so is the man who receives them.Lastly a very, very important thank you goes to my mom Judy and dad Willie. They try so hard to make sure I'm happy and content in life, a mission that they have done and still are doing very well. I am their common bond, about their only one as a matter of fact hahaha anyway I know they have helped craft me into the man I am today, (which if I do say so myself is a pretty cool and sexy guy hey ladies *waves*). I love them so much I don't think they even know to what degree I do love them. They are my true heroes and best friends so much so that, if I died and the forces of the Lord told me I could come back armed and able to have all the physical and mental talents, experiences and abilities I longed to have in this life, I would look Him right in the eyes if that was okay with Him that is, don’t want to make God mad on purpose of all people and say, "No thanks, Lord, I had a good run as Walker the Wheelchair Bodybuilder/Bodybuilder I’m plenty happy with these memories, no need for me to seek to replace them."Not to say I would reject a certain cure and I always hope for one in this life but even if that someday occurs I'll never forget these days as I travel new paths. Just when you thought I was done here comes a few more servings of food for thought for all of you to look upon and digest enjoy.This message is calling upon all Internet users and Youtube visitors worldwide both with and without Youtube accounts.Anyone and everyone who reads this has any extra time to kill please be sure check to out my Channel and the Web site URL link within my Channel it’s for a really great cause, see I’m a Wheelchair athlete to be more specific, a Wheelchair Bodybuilder and am trying to use good old Youtube to help me and my fellow friends and competitors, and our sport get more exposure in the US and worldwide by hopefully getting more fans and possibly even competitors if they ride in style like us haha. I know a message such as this could be seen as Spam and somewhat robotic but please be aware that the reason it has to be a message that’s kind of static and spamish like this is because it takes me a long time to type due to my disability and it would be super hard and unrealistic for me to type a message similar to this one a several times a day on Youtube, so I made this message not to Spam, annoy, or agitate other users but only to make it easier for me to do what everybody else on Youtube does which is, by what I gather to promote stuff that they like and that’s important to them so they can share it with the world without having to have a really, really big microphone take care best wishes everyone spread the word as fast as good Hollywood Gossip only in a more positive way of course and oh yeah enjoy the videos the links are below. This message will self-destruct in 10 seconds I’ve always wanted to say that haha BOOM baby *flexes* welcome to the Gun Show and again as always take care everyone thanks for your time and support.Walker “The Big Dogg†Runnelshttp://www.youtube.com/user/Def yFate2022http://www.youtube.com/view _play_list?p=1656D7EE0476AF6AIt feels really great to finally reach a point in my life to feel like I’m getting what I want and have wanted more in my 22 years of youthful life than anything else at least as far as my own personal satisfaction and enjoyment in life are concerned which was and still is and always will be, to be recognized more for my strength, heart, and physical prowess than my intellectual abilities now I’m not saying by any measure that smarts are not of vast importance ( Be cool kids and everyone really stay in school till your done with whatever level of education your after I’m serious) too but just cause my body doesn’t work at 100% usage doesn’t mean that my intelligence should be overestimated and (I’m not a dummy but for some strange reason people think I’m super smart which is certainly flattering but wrong I’m just a person who like any good student of life works hard to hide their own stupidity in that regard a mask I wear but the truth I dare to tell haha) or overstated and looked upon by many I’ve met in life as the only way I can have any real impact or contribution to and upon my life or the world and education and intelligence again as important as they are shouldn’t be seen as the only way I can help myself or others, I believe and always have that a human being even if given no outstanding talent or skills that separates them from the rest should have the undying right to strive and work hard for whatever legacy they wish to be known for, to leave behind if you will and I want to be known for my Bodybuilding/Athletic exploits and it’s many sports, mainly in my situation Wheelchair Bodybuilding and if I ever get well I believe I’m going to also try my hand at combat sports and see how I fare. I often ponder thought do you think if my body was “normal†and I could walk and live on own that people would be able to have any input in my life that I didn’t want to listen to as to whether I be better off as a athlete or say a school teacher, no because I would simply walk away and heavily pursue my own goals and dreams as I am now well except the whole walking thing haha I’m a horrible comedian. Secondly, this also crosses my mind if I had been lucky enough to be “normal†how many people would really care what I was up to in my journey of life as long as it was something positive and I was hardworking at whatever my aspirations were/are and some people I’m sure some people need a kick in the rear to get them pumped up about their attempts at conquering life and it’s many fine intricacies you know “winning†the game but see my problem never laid or has laid in the fact that the motivation wasn’t/isn’t there no in fact I think I run on jet fuel in that department my issue lies instead in the wings (my body) so in short I never really wanted to anything but an athlete, wheelchair or not so guess what? I’m not ever going to try be anything but a athlete/Bodybuilder because being different than what you truly desire to be may be better for you in some regards but in the grand scheme of things the habitual lying to yourself and unhappiness and regret that will inevitably result from this of existence will create a void so deep your many attempts to fill it with more false dreams, pursuits, motivations, and desires, and material things will sadly only be in vain so that’s why I’m doing something I’m passionate about and especially why I believe others should a major part of their lives to the same. I was lucky enough to be born with such great family and friends who support me and understand my viewpoints (for the most part) and how important Bodybuilding and what I want everyone to know is that all my hard work I try to do for WCBB is as hard or harder than a “real†job only difference being that it’s non profit and not that I want money, I’m very happy with just a place to belong to all my own, which I believe for the most part with this sport and being a bodybuilder I’ve found that place, although I think I’d also fit in at the Playboy Mansion quite nicely as well hey I’m just saying.)One last time I want to thank everyone soThank you, Train hard & Take careWalker Runnels
