Here I am at the start of my contest diet. Just look at that full face! LOL
This was taken on stage at the 2008 OCB Circle City Bodybulding Classic. I earned 1st place in the men's open tall division.
Most exercises are done with 3 sets of 10 repetitions. Each workout takes 60 to 90 minutes. Cardiovascular exercise is done 2 or 3 times per week depending on progress.

I need to add some more size so I can be more competitive. Probably not competing agin until next June, but I may get a wild hair and compete in September (I'm lean for the summer anyway! Look forward to crossing paths with you again Chris.
It was a real pleasure to meet you Saturday. You have a beautiful physique and I enjoyed how well u showed it. More important, you conduct yourself with a quiet certainty and grace. A good role model!
Awesome progression and I salute you for doing it as a natural. Other than your role as a teacher I see you as a role model for every lifter out there and those thinking about lifting and what they can do naturally.
Keep ripping it up!
