Paul Anderson. He was the one that inspired me to begin working out. In 1986 I was given two choices. YDC for two years or the Paul Anderson Youth Home (PAYH). It was the best decision of my life. Paul, his family, his staff, pushed exercise. Running in the morning and weights in the evening. Thanks Paul, You will always be the World's Strongest Man to me. You carried much more than weights on your shoulders.

It's me time. I give twelve sometimes thirteen hours a day four to five days a week to my job and then spread out the remaining time to my sleep and my family. For that hour and a half it's just me. Me against me. The ear buds go in and I drown out the world for 90 minutes. Don't get me wrong, I love to have a partner, you'll just have to endure my singing.
