You must be drilling that vacuum haha spot on bro

Yessir! Thanks man. I want to be able to hold my vacuum poses a minimum of 15 seconds. I’m not there yet lol

You know how to grind man . Getting in shape seems to come pretty easy for you, or you’re just a psycho like most competitors look great man . Been following your journey since you arrived, consistency is key and that you have nailed

Hell yeah. Looks like you’re bringing a better package this time around!

 

[Ckmeter]

My last show was a good learning experience, but looking back it just pisses me off. I was overdieted, and my body did not agree with my old coach’s approach.

This year will be a completely different package that we’re bringing. I will be better conditioned and have substantially more mass, balance, and symmetry.

 

[Ckmeter]

This prep means so much more to me than most of you guys know. I’m in a relationship with my number 1 supporter and best friend who is a wellness competitor. She pushes me so hard to be my best, and she makes this prep so much more pleasant. She understands what I’m going through and knows how to keep my head straight.

My coach is the best coach I could ask for. He knows my body incredibly well, and we work very very well together.

I found out my close friend was diagnosed with liver cancer about 3 weeks ago. He was a classic physique competitor and had the genetics to turn pro this year and be a good pro. Instead of bodybuilding, he is now focused on living for 2 more years. He’s in his fucking 20s.

I am so blessed to be living the life I am and doing this prep for USAs. Everything is so insignificant that I have to deal with on prep compared to what others are struggling with. I know my friend would give anything to be prepping for a show. So, I refuse to give anything less than 100 percent every single day this prep because I know he would do the same.

I am so grateful to @StadaLabs and @StadaGear for allowing me to join the team and partner up for this log and prep.
