When you pick up your first magazine you definitely hope you can be like the guy on the magazine. That's usually why you start lifting.

Get over it people, I worked my ass off.

Actually to be a champion your goal is to be a little bit better each day, making sure that every day is an opportunity to be at your best.

I'm always the guy on tour that tries to get guys chatting and a lot of banter back and forth so I definitely feel that a lot of bodybuilders have that comedic side in them, they're just a little bit more introverted.

The money will go but the trophies will always be there.

If it was easy everyone would be a champion, so you've got to decide if you're that person that's going to be a champion.

When I played basketball, I spent hours On the court practicing. When i became a body-builder, I was in the gym all the time. Like most beginners, I didn't really know what I was doing, but the more I did it, the more I loved it. I guess you could say I was a gym rat. Seeing my body change made me come back for more.
