Supplement Plan:
Whey 30 minutes after training, Gaspari products throughout the day.

Cardio starts 16 weeks out at 30 minutes to increase to 100 minutes in the final week.
Training each boady part once a week, calves two times, abs everyday.
Train heavy year round, 4 to 8 reps.
Tell Your Story (What Inspired you to compete, obstacles you've overcome, etc.):
I competed in powerlifting for several years 1995 – 2003. I competed in all three lifts and also did many push pull shows.
I became tired of having to carry 270 lbs of bodyweight so I decided to try bodybuilding.
I have really enjoyed meeting everyone and the competition. Bodybuilding is a great sport.
I think in the end the diet and cardio prep is the most important if you want to be successful.
