Always athletic, played baseball, soccer, and ran cross country (parents wouldn't let me play football) so I just spent time trying to get stronger and faster for baseball and soccer.

Phase1 of my HvH program is usually 15-20 reps per set... to condition and get the muscular endurance up. Phase2 of my HvH program is 4-12 reps to get the strength and mass up.

How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
Phase1 of HvH - hardly any rest at all... again trying to force adaptation, work the endurance, and bring cardio levels up. Phase2 of HvH - a lot more rest as trying to push more weight

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
When I was a pro wrestler... Chris Benoit. Overall in BBing I like the look of Darrem Charles or Kevin Levrone as they hold mass and have good proportioning/detail.

In bodybuilding... there's two types of posers... 1) the serious athlete who looks to bust his butt, improve everything in every way he can and to display the physique he's worked so hard to obtain by POSING and 2) the other people who POSE.... people who call themselves bodybuilders or...
Hey Ben! As I was looking at some of your photos, I thought "That looks like a Lifestyle Family Fitness locker room, and sure enough, it is! I work at the LFF in Orange Park (and used to manage both OPK and Atlantic). If you're ever in the area, I'd be honored to have you train at our club. Keep up the great work, man! You look fantastic. Even from an early age, you had a superior build.
Hey was really awesome meeting you at the Arnold BENNY!! Can't wait to see how you look at the Sunshine Classic. You are nice guy, hope to see you again soon. Good luck!
How are you ? i would like to know how you managed to get this much muscle mass while looking so defined at the same time? could you send me your training and meal programme ? Take care of your self. thanks, frank
