I've got a couple of years on ya. You've got a LOT of well-sculpted defined muscle over me. Not only are you a genuine source of inspiration that I will refer back to, but seeing your pics proves to me that I don't have to shave until I'm ready for my one-time NPC contest. Thanks!

Sorry about that - I got a bunch of PM's at once. Please try when you get this ... look forward to hearing from you, Steve

Hey Yank, Sorry for not getting your comment sooner. Am still lifting, but for now, I've have had to turn the intensity down :(. I have three blown lumbar discs (from college) and they're really acting up, plus spinal stenosis...intense pain. Physical Therapy now, then I get to choose between hitting the weight room harder, with perfect form, or major surgery. Didn't take much more than a nanosecond to choose. I'm depressed w/out lifting daily, lots. Congrats about going to Cologne!

Hey.... Thanks for the compliment! During the four + warm months we have here in Chicago, I don't wear a shirt unless I have to. I work hard everyday on my body & health... why cover up more than necessary? Used to live in Berkeley for five years ... long time ago, obviously, but I go back once in awhile. Like your profile.

Great role model & mentor ... your profile + articles triggered the will & discipline to really go for my goals. I needed re-awakening, and now, I'm ready. Will be watching your postings. Thanks!
