Overall Goal: 2010 contest season is fast approaching...I plan to step onstage again in 2010...BIGGER & BETTER than ever before. I want to maintain my current weight (220) and get lean - means gaining lean muscle while destroying the fat. Let's get to it!!!

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.

Competition is always between you & yourself...achieve your personal best and keep your standards high.
2010 contest season is fast approaching...I plan to step onstage again in 2010...BIGGER & BETTER than ever before. 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.
This guy embodies the essence of teh look I want (of course I want to be bigger). He makes me miss my abs and the pics I used to take (LOL)....looks like a walking "all encompassing" advertisement. THAT's MY GOAL!!!! WIN SHOWS and be an inspiration...

Description: Self explanatory...somebody challenged me about the "proper way to execute" but what works for you and safely...Most top athletes modify exercises often. This works for me...
Diet taunt 1
Played: 231
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.

Why I like this video: Come on it's Kai Greene....He, Melvin Anthony, dexter Jackson, and of course Ronnie are my favorite bodybuilders because of their complete and near perfect physiques and original presentation.

Why I like this video: I wanna have this song in my head everytime I go to the Gym...I feel like training NOW!!!
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...
I hear ya homie. I got a goal to get into the single digits by July (my birthday), but I know I can hit it before then. Just re-up'ed on some CLA and some hydroxycut. What diet plan you following now and how much cardio you doing?
Everything is going well. Preparing for Christmas and food for the night. Excited i see a small buldge in my arms so I think a lil muscle is trying to come. Yea!!
lol, That was a good one! Shawn is no joke either, however. You have a good build man, you are bound to do damage in whichever organization you choose to compete in!
What up homie!
Been a minute since I holla'd at you. Hope things are well with you and the fam. Finish up the year strong, cause 2010 is gonna be off the chain.
Peace!
Well if you cant tell by the pics i placed in the top 15 in my class which i am very happy of, especially at Nationals. Got few changes to do next yr but i'll be in top 5 then. Hows training going??
