      Massage

      Today was my "rest" day from training. Still got in both cardio sessions. Took advantage of my time by driving 2 hours to see my massage therapist. He put the hurt on me, but it's necessary for me to be at my best. I highly recommend any bodybuilder or avid weight lifter to get deep tissue and chiropractic work done frequently. It makes a world of difference in performance and prevents injury.

      Thank you! I can only do my best and that's exactly what I did. I felt I brought my best package that I possibly could have for this show this year. Only improving from here forward!!

      I appreciate that man! It was a blast being on stage, sharing words of wisdom, and just plain joking around with these guys.

      How was it going from NPC to competing with Flex Lewis on the Olympia stage that quickly? Gotta be a pretty cool and surreal feeling considering most guys dream of getting even 1 shot on the O stage. You're crushing it man

      It was definitely a dream come true. On the same note, I've always been focused, driven, and willing to do whatever it took to be at the top guy's level. I have and always had faith in myself. But yes. It was an incredible experience and I definitely did not take it for granted!

      One step back.. two steps forward!

      Took yesterday as a rest day because I woke up with some stomach sickness. Not sure if it was food poisoning or what. I hate taking rest days that aren't scheduled, but sometimes it's necessary. So today I made up my leg workout and it was probably the best leg workout I've had in several weeks. Feeling much better and still as focused as ever to be better every single day!
