When I Started:
Jun, 2005
How I Started:
I was active duty stationed in Europe and got an invite to a show. I knew nothing about bodybuilding. I read Muscle and Fitness and played sports. I will never forget the day Charlie Corollo showed me how to pose and said you can stand on stage tomorrow. I bought the wrong oil and trunks, but put together the best 90 sec routine...LOL... I placed 4th in Light Heavy with no dieting or training or even preparation and I've been hooked since then.
Why I Love It:
Keeps me balanced emotionally and physically....also I like helping others and it is interesting to keep up with science and physics, etc.
How I Stay Motivated:
My body needs the gym so when I'm out I feel it...Bodyspace also keeps me motivated...
BB Accomplishments:
Top 5 at the 2005 INBF amateur World competition...my second contest with only 4 weeks of dieting.

happy birthday to all the Marines online - Semper Fidelis!!!! I want to maintain my current weight (220) and get lean - means gaining lean muscle while destroying the fat. Let's get to it!!!
Goal (Long):
I wanna be lean by New Year's Eve & bring up my delts, chest, and quads. Quality size and more detail...Enhance the V-taper. My goal is to make National's / Team Universe in 2010 which will be my first year competing in the NPC. This means gaining lean mass and maintaining/building more muscle is detrimental. I am looking forward to the new development as well as seeing most of you guys on the circuit....and fitting back in to my 2-3x shirts.
HIn Deizel joined bodyspace asked a few questions and TOOK OFFF. His transformation is nothing short of amazing and all it took was the desire and will to make it happen. There are those of us who know what to do and never put it into action and others like myself blessed with amazing physiques and do nothing with them. His transformation has catapulted me to new heights- no longer will I dream of being great, I AM GREAT and I thank people like Big HIN and Dawn Melanie for their fighting spirit.

Description: I was minding my business before I got put on the spot by Lady P. Watch out for upcoming vids...I'm in growth mode. and have already grown since this vid was posted...
Why I like this video: Kai Greene has an awesome physique. I think that mine is similar although a lot smaller (for now). I also like the way he displays his unique physique and would like to mimic this new form of art and physical presentation...as best I can.

I got pushed in the gym by lady P the other day..I'll give y'all a minute to let that settle in. (okay, ready) So as SHE is pushing me on hanging leg raises (since I am crunk as hell when lifting) I starte dthinking about how much stronger I use to be and how lean I use to be and how much...
Thanks man! Yeah, #7 was his number during the pre-season. Right now, he is wearing #12. I'm proud of him. He's a good athlete. He keeps me busy. Lol! You're looking good bro! Great back shot! Ricky
Hey bro, bizness is crazy. All my clients whether it's training or massage therapy, I believe are happy and more keep coming. A brutha be tired ya know. Having ur own bizness is rough but very rewarding when you transform someones body. It's all the follow and paperwork that gets to be difficult, and boring, lol.
I love the Jay Robb it's low in calories and it's sweetened with Stevia. Also it's not so heavy! The super hero training is going well, have to get my super hero name nailed down though!
Thanks for the add bro. I see you doing your thing. And you got Lady P in your corner and awesome young son. I remember when my 2 boys were that young. Lets keep banging the iron and keeping 100 all the way. I'm clanging the iron late Sunday afternoon.
Man Shaw... love the new avi profile pic!!!.... Symmetry is on point!! even though the background scenery could be ... like the ocean or something... but YOU look solid Boyfriend! Keep hittin it hard! Jazzy:)
Looks like you were def able to build some mass!! I know you'll do great on your cut- give it a couple weeks of clean eating/cardio...can't wait to see pics :)
I'm packing on some mass right now so I cut back to 8-6 reps per lift. I'm going to try leaning out in about 2 or 3 months . How many reps do you do when you are trying to get shredded? I've been pretty focused for the last 3-4 months and this weight lifting thing is tha shi*.
