After college I joined Texas Bodybuilding Gym in Houston, just to stay in shape. After 4-5 months there Charles Nichols started bugging me about entering a contest. I entered my first show in May 1983 after 7.5 months of serious weight training.
Why I Love It:
I love the challenge of training hard. I love the pump. I love the way it makes me look and how it makes me feel. It keeps me young.
How I Stay Motivated:
Competition is my greatest motivation. Getting e-mails or comments from people who are inspired by my accomplishments is also a huge motivator for me!

DaveGoodinchanged Overall Goal: "I want to add muscle this off-season, particularly in my legs.."
How much protein do you eat when trying to gain? I have been getting in 185 grams (1.5xbw), 244 carbs (2xbw), and 70 grams fat (~0.6 g/b) and still not gaining weight. I was wondering if I should bump everything up a bit, or keep protein whhere it is at and just up carbs/fats.
Hey thanks, Dave...it was a tough show. I had only trained 4 weeks for it--I'm so last minute. I may do the Shredder in April; I have some friends training for it. Anyway, congrats on your recent win! :-)
Congrats on World's, you are amazing. It has been an honor being on stage with you and can't wait to see you mix it up with the 202's. Best of luck to you!
Just to let you know, you've inspired me for several years. I greatly admire the "naturals" cause I am one too. You set an awesome example! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
You are such a inspiration for me. You are one of my role model. You've teached me to be patient and consitant.
I'm am wondering what is your macronutrient ratio for bulking and cutting ?
Thanks in advance!
