Old Friends....New Friends

Old Friends:
Due to unusual circumstances regarding family issues, I stopped today and trained at World Gym......where my bodybuilding "career" all started. It was nice to see familiar faces and chat with old friends. My suspicions of having a good off-season where confirmed. Most could not get over what kind of size I put on and it just so happens, today I was at my lightest weight since October 2004. My former trainer and friend, Jim, who has watched me grow over the years also confirmed that my hard work on my back and delts has finally paid off. As I mentioned previously, I'm doing Master's Nationals, getting anxious and I'll be ready!

New Friends:
Bodybuilding has lead me down a very important path in life...the opportunity to meet some amazing fellow competitors that I now call friends. I'm gratetful for every one of you!

Colette: Best of luck to you this weekend as you step on the stage for your pro debut. I wish I could be there for you like I was in Spain. Abdul and I will be thinking of you and will be there in spirit! Go get 'em girl!!!
