Insights

The reason I started bodybuilding is...

I have always loved and respected the bodybuilder physique and work ethic. I was approached by a teacher in high school who was also a competitive bodybuilder. He told me I had a great physique and should try competing. The rest is history.

The person I most wanted to be when I started was...

My cousin Steve, who is a competitor and natural champion in the OPA.

The people I owe the most to are...

My parents for helping me establish a hard work ethic, buying me my first set of weights and helping me learn how to properly exercise without hurting myself.

The supplements I can’t live without are...

PURPLE•K, AGENT•M, GLUTAMEND and a good quality whey protein isolate.

The best thing about training is...

Being able to push yourself to failure, testing your limits as a human being and watching the numbers increase on all of your lifts.

My ultimate goal is...

To one day compete as a heavyweight and earn my pro card.

One thing every gym rat should know is...

It’s not about how much you can lift; it’s about how your muscles feel while lifting using strict form and with full extension and contraction.

Years I’ve been training...

8 years.

Last new bodybuilding thing I learned...

The principles of FST-7 training, created by Hany Rambod.

The thing I hate most about stepping up onstage is...

The nervousness you feel knowing hundreds of people are judging your physique.

The first thing I’ll do after getting my pro card is...

I’ll take a night to celebrate, but I would head back to the gym soon and continue to make progress. A pro card is just another new beginning.
