ABOUT BODYBUILDING

I got started at my local Boys and Girls Club gym (Located in North Lauderdale Florida), with a female bodybuilder by the name of Ann Mary-Cook. This was the first time I started lifting weights for any kind of competition. This occurred in 1995.

I started lifting weights for the sake of bodybuilding my freshman year in college (that was in 1998). Mr. Bob Carroll the director of Florida A & M University (FAMU) fitness center and Mr. Gei Nam Lim then took an interest in me and began coaching me for my first bodybuilding show (The Mr. FAMU Bodybuilding Show).Which I won bye the way. I went on winning the next three Mr. FAMU Bodybuilding Shows. I not only won those shows I also trained all the competitors enrolled in those shows.

I love manipulating my body. I like to see how I can make myself look and feel, however I want. I also like the attention I get from having bulging muscles. All these things coupled with the fact that it is super healthy for me. How can you not love bodybuilding.

For the most part I am self-motivated. I enjoy pushing myself to the limit in every way possible. However, my son and daughter provide that extra motivation during those carb depletion days when you look at yourself in the mirror after losing 30 or 40lbs and ask an I sure this is what I want to do for the rest of my life.
