Chris is pursuing other interests at this time. After this past year, and the Gammo-O debacle...he decided to secure a better future for himself and his family that isn't dependant on BB related work.

He's only 30, so I wouldn't rule out him coming back at some point in the future, but it's safe to say it woudn't be for at least a few years if at all...

Right now, he's keeping in training and thinking about doing some UFC style fighting, as he has a pretty decent background in wrestling/ boxing/ fighting...

If Chris' focus and energy is anything like it was in getting his pro card...I wouldn't doubt he does very well in MMA.

Cook had the genetics to be a top 5 bodybuilder,  from the front anyways, for sure...

that picture highlights his high lat insertions and unusually long torso, which would have kept him from placing well.
on another note, every time i have met chris, he has been a genuinely nice guy.  i hope he does well with mma.

He was another poster child - marketing wet-dream that couldn't bring it to the stage...Good for Chris though persuing other ventures and realizing he wouldn't make it in bodybuilding...
