He is now 51 years old
Arnold hired him for several years to guest pose at the Olympia and A Classic
He is that good/great
don't let his lighter physique fool you
his routines inspire standing O's always
Actually has made a living out of Guest posing (25-30 gigs /year)

No that's terrible too. But moves like "climbing the rope", a Russ Testo move, are stupid looking too. Hitting you mandatories right should be the first priority. Like Yates. I don't like the sitting down on one leg/half-split either, doesn't look good IMO.

Post by: Ron on August 01, 2009, 10:16:50 PM: He is a great poser - very entertaining, and many competitors can learn something from him. He was guest posing at the 2009 NPC Emerald Cup this year too, and did two different routines, both which were quite entertaining.

I know that Mark Mason (fellow Bodybuilding.com photographer) videotaped the performance for the NPC Emerald Cup DVD, as Mark Mason was also taking pics tonight at the Jacksonville Pro contests.
