My training partner Zach Lavigne, for keeping me focused and DRIVEN !!

This was taken somewhere around 1995 when I was about 23 years old with my daughter Sam. I am very skinny, very thin, no legs, no arms, nothing. This pic shows my genetics- or lack of- most people are much thicker by this age. I stayed the same weight as I was in high school.
I will follow in your footsteps bro ! I want that pro card in 2010 and with your help and Cellucor I think I can get it ! Thanks for hooking a brotha' up ! ! It means a lot to have you behind me and believin in me. We will take it to the competition . . .
Veins still all over my quads today during leg training. Unreal vascularity for being 15 lbs over my contest weight. Next spring I will look like a f*in FREAK !!
6-30, NEED A WIDE RANGE OF REPS TO STIMULATE ALL MUSCLE FIBERS !

How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
1-1:30, during diet 45sec or less. 2-3:00 on squats, longer rest on Powerlifts like deads squats, etc. Exercise with more muscle recruitment means more rest is required.

Which pro bodybuilder/fitness/figure competitor has the ideal physique? Why?
Dennis Wolfe is the next Mr. Olympia but honestly the guys are too big now to have a pretty physique.
Almost there, 6 more lbs approx. to lose, 4 1/2 weeks to go. Skin is getting thinner, but not striated enough yet. More damn cardio to go. Had a crazy day of lifting last night. I decided to do some crazy weight on just above the knee rack deads and pulled 700x2 ! Not the smartest thing at 4%...
Hey man, just got home sorry I had to run out during the arm over arm pull today had to work 2-9. Hope everything ran smoothly, it was an awesome showing thats for sure. BTW what time on Monday do you want to train? Think you said 2 o'clock, get some good calf shots. haha figured i would stay after to learn up on the computer system as well.
hey man- thanks for the add and the encouragement. I'm really working hard to make the comp next year happen. All the advice and props I can get will help! Keep doing it to it man!
a grip machine? never heard of one, but it sounds cool. I've got some of those 'heavy grippers' but I got kinda lazy and dont use it very often now lol
thanks Craig, yeah ur gym is awsome. But cus of my hand I wouldnt be able to take advantage of it right now. I def be doin some workouts there when I'm fixed up. realy wanna try out those atlas stones!
hey bro! any of the gyys that are on here that Need my help justtell them to ask! hit me up on here or they can get me directly at.. Peace bro!;) http://www.myspace.com/******* *blackops
Hey Craig,
I'm not going to be competing again until next spring (a show in May, and one in June). I'm hoping to use the time 'off' to put on some quality size and improvements. What are your thoughts on competing 'too much'? I know you're an old hand at this compared to me, but being aware of areas I need to bring up, it just seemed that my time would be better used to remedy the situation instead of hoping back onstage again. What do you think? (am I being too analytical? -lol)
S
Finally! He has arrived! Posing was... better, couple of fudges LOL. Just kiddin man the best you ever looked! Now next year, I'm callin you out Me VS. You; if you come in that condition it will be scary. I think you will actually push me to not cheat at all on the diet! Do you have Zacks e-mail he contacted me to get a hold of him but I don't have any info thanks...
