      12 Beautiful Life Lessons I have Learned From Bodybuilding

      Hey guys 20 days out from my 8th show and I am releasing a small series on 12 beautiful life lessons I have learned from bodybuilding.

      Would appreciate if any of you check it out and give it a like, comment or share. This journey began with learning to train in 2010, doing my first show in 2015 and still chasing that dream of becoming a pro.

      Thank you for any support!

      I think that an opportunity may have been overlooked to call the first part, "part Juan".

      LMAO MAN I DROPPED THE BALL ON THAT ONE!!!

      Thanks for asking brother. I came in 3rd out of 8 in the LHW class in what was I would say the most competitive regional show in all of Canada for the year.

      I qualified for nationals which was yesterday but opted not to do it.

      I am not competing anymore for the "experience" or participation medals. I want to go in there to win the overall.

      Although I was at my best ever on stage, I could have been a lot better but a few thing's went wrong with this prep that I know I was not near my full potential.

      I still have work to do so I started my offseason this past Wednesday.

      I still have no official stage pictures but when I get them I will post them :) I do have a crappy cell phone video of my routine here:

      Time to grow! Thanks so much for the support brother!

      It's always inspiring to see someone working to achieve their goals.
