Before and After
Whew, you have come a long way baby! This is a picture of me in February 1996 holding my daughter and another of me in November of 2001. I began weight training in June of 1998 for recreation and basically occupy my time in between work. I started out at 137 lbs and after 11 months I gained roughly 18lbs.
Two years later, I entered my first bodybuilding competition at the NPC Bodyrock held in Virginia. I took the novice lightweight class and after that I was hooked!
After a few more contests were under my belt, I set my sights on obtaining my pro card. I wanted to enter an organization that held stringent drug testing policies and through my research found that the WNBF was the foremost organization providing polygraph along with urinalysis testing. Therefore, in 2002, my only focus was to get turn pro in that organization which I accomplished at the INBF Natural Atlantic Coast!
