Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words. And yes, undoubtedly, PRRS training has alot to do with the final product!

To know that I am the one that got you into training seriously is one of the highest compliments you could give me. Thank you so much!

And don't worry, improvements are forthcoming my friend! From those pics I am already up 5 lbs and even tighter.

Thank you buddy! I really thought I was going to edge him out for 6th, but hey, I am very happy. I was only about 75-80% of my best at that show, so next year I look to move up into the top 5!

The best thing is that you still look really natural. You don't look 'bulky'. You look buff.

Thank you. My goal is perfection of the physique, not just grotesque musculature.

One thing Gary (the 6th place guy) has going for him is he always comes in super hard and dry. he's not the biggest guy out there but he makes up for it with conditioning.
7th place is great no matter how you look at it.. Im sure at or near 100% you should easily crack the top 5. I'd really like to see how both of you do at the next one.

Actually I felt I was more conditioned than him, but he was fuller. Apples and oranges.

I am happy with 7th out of 14 for my first pro show (and first show in 6 years). Next year I will be going into my shows to win, not just to "do ok!"
