How Did You Get Started?

I have been bodybuilding since I was 8, started by lifting heavy rocks in my back yard. I got really sore, and that ignited the love that I feel for the sport right now.

What Workout Plan Worked Best For You?

I do my legs and stomach everyday, and each other day I do two body parts, maxing out till failure. Sometimes I workout 2 times a day...

What Supplements Have Given You The Greatest Gains?

I unfortunately don't use supplements. I really watch my diet and take Multi-Vitamin like Centrum. I eat lots of proteins and also try to cut way down on my fat.

Why do you love Bodybuilding?

I absolutely adore the way that it makes me feel and look after an intense workout. Relieves a lot of stress also when I come home from a hard day of work.

What Are Your Future Bodybuilding Plans?

To compete in a nationwide bodybuilding competition, and possibly become the next Lee Haney.

What One Tip Would You Give Other Bodybuilders?

Focus on your Goal! Let nothing get in your way, but do it sensibly. Try not to overdo it, and always LISTEN to your body. It will tell you when it has been pushed far enough. You don't want to hurt it.

Who Are Your Favorite Bodybuilders?

My all time favorite bodybuilder is Arnold Schwarzenegger. I look up to him. I focus on his picture when I am in the midst of a very intense workout, and believe or not, he pulls me through it. He is definitely my idol.
