In the beginning it wasn’t bodybuilding competition that motivated me, it was just getting muscles and getting big. And certainly it has evolved for me since then. I think I’m still evolving.

We are here to learn and to make our dreams realized.

I feel it is a tremendous compliment to a natural competitor to hear “I just don’t believe you’re natural,” because it means you just look that good.

It’s a very interesting thing to try to be your absolute best – not a percent better or a percent worse than that.

I feel for food more than I could crave a woman. And that’s the truth!

Your dreams will always be more important to you than anyone else, you can want something as much as you want but at the end of the day your mum doesn’t care if your arms are 24 inches or not, but that doesn’t mean you give up, chase your dreams.

My goal is to be a contributor and to encourage others as they realize their dreams.

Is it 10g of protein more or 10g of protein less, who cares, just get started.

I’ve never competed in powerlifting. But my goals weren’t to be a powerlifter. My goals were to pack on size and get big, big, big.

Bodybuilding has been the tool that single-handedly taught a little black boy from the projects to use his mind to achieve success. it taught me to see things for what they can be. I had 17-inch arms; I imagined them to be 24 inches. The power of my mind allowed me to achieve what I imagined.
