How Did You Get Started?

I got started in bodybuilding and lifting by seeing my first muscle magazine and it totally amazed me and I wanted to look like the pros big, cut and powerful!

  • Day 3: Legs
  • Day 4: Chest, Biceps
  • Day 5: Off
  • Repeat
  • Abs and Calves twice a week on separate days.

What Nutrition Plan Has Worked Best For You?

My nutrition plan for the offseason is lots of clean healthy food and one cheat day a week. I don't count calories in the offseason, just keep it clean and eat lots. My contest diet is my bodyweight multiplied by 12 for the amount of calories I eat a day, my bodyweight multiplied by 1.2 for the amount of protein and my bodyweight multiplied by 0.8 for the amount of carbs. The rest of the calories are from fat and one cheat meal a week.

What Supplements Have Given You The Greatest Gains?

Whey Protein has given me the most gains, can't be enough protein in the diet.

Why Do You Love Bodybuilding?

My plans for bodybuilding are to get bigger and compete at the national level.

What One Tip Would You Give Other Bodybuilders?

My advice for others is to eat well and clean and to be consistent.

My favorite bodybuilders are Lee Priest, Frank Zane and my buddy BIG Jake Nakagema.
