You are going to have bad days and have good days.

Close to birth... I lost, like, 80 percent of my hearing, and I had difficulty speaking.

I've done the voice for the Hulk for the animated cartoon.

Most pro bodybuilders have bad relationships with their fathers. We want to prove something.

There is no excuse for anyone not to train three times a week...Anyone can change their mind if they want to. It's all about motivation

Believing in myself and not to be afraid of taking any risks. I have to be better than the average person to succeed. That’s why I chose bodybuilding. If I became a world champion, if I could win admiration from my peers, I could do anything.

I certainly don't agree with the bodybuilders who say you can get big forearms just by squeezing the dumbbell handles when doing curls. In a few cases this may be true, but those guys would build big forearms by merely eating eggs in the morning. Most bodybuilders, myself included, have to work very hard for any kind of meaningful forearm development.
