Hello, Below are a few vids of me in preparation for Nationals. It has been a tough prep getting down to the lightheavyweight class. Muscular Development has been awesome in giving me some coverage for the show. The only bad thing is that the vid of me at 2 weeks out did not do me justice... no...

Diet and Cardio In general I definitely train very similar leading up to a show... but always keep in mind during that last phase that injuries are not an option. The diet is without a shade of doubt the most important tool and although I complete as little cardio as possible, I definitely use...
