Personal Info And Background:
Real Name:
Dave Bogan
Sex:
Male
Age:
26
Location:
Tallahassee, Florida, United States
Occupation:
Full-Time Grad Student / Manager at American Freight
I first got started weightlifting because of high school football in 1999. I was one of the weakest and smallest players on the team at 6'0 ft. tall 160lbs. with a max bench of 150lbs. I started bodybuilding in 2001 because of a guy I noticed in the gym that was a competitor. He was ripped to shreds and I wanted to look like that!
Why I Love It:
I love working out because it not only helps me physically but emotionally as well. It gives me confidence because at one time I had none. It also gives me a boost of energy! I love bodybuilding because it keeps me lean... Otherwise I wouldn't be doing cardio or even be on a steady diet and I would probably get to 260lbs. again! lol
How I Stay Motivated:
I stay motivated mainly because of my goals. Whenever I look in the mirror all I see is improvements that need to be made. I know as well that as a natural bodybuilder I must work extra hard to get gains and this motivates me too as well.
BB Accomplishments:
2007 Typhoon Bay Championships
2nd Place Heavyweight
2007 Florida Gold Cup Championships
1st Place Light-heavyweight
2007 NGA Natural Universe
1st Place Heavyweight and overall

I don't know about any tips that I have, all I can say is it was a lot of fun and a really well run show. The schedule is a bit tough because you have 2 days between prejudging and finals. If she has placed well then she should get an invitation. Good Luck
Damn, man you look great. Awesome mass on your chest and size on your arms. You have really inspired me big guy. I want to be just like you. Take care and good luck in achieving all your goals and reaching your personal physique objectives, clearly you are well on your way!
Hey!! That's awesome that you did so well last year. I went a few years back to watch some friends compete and the bodybuilding portion of the show is SOOOOO COMPETITIVE! There are some really talented guys out there. You're not going to compete in 2008? =( How come? Thanks for wishing me good luck...I had a really great practice today on all my strength and tumbling moves, so it must have helped :)
