took me a few web searches to figure out he's a writer at Muscle International.   but he's not in my database, so it doesn't appear that he's ever competed.

see what you get for posting under an alias

He deserves props.
It is extremely diificult to not only write a book, but to get it  published, as well.

Check out the "back cover."  Wow, what an inspired storyline.

I competed twice as a teen back in 91 (NPC Richmond County Classic in Staten Island and Physique 91 in Jesey). Finished middle of the pack. Not good enough to warrant continuing to compete in my eyes, though I don't think I will ever stop lifting.

Feeling the love here!

Lotsa Zombie books these days, it seems. I read World War Z a year or two back - that was a blast.

hey chimps Im reading that right now-------incredible book, far better than I thought it would be

I love the structure of the book the whole interview and different perspective thing.

the visuals that book conjures up are insane----never has the zombie been more terrifying in a piece of literature or movie for that matter

Met Tony a few times when he came to Jimmy Vest's place.  An all around good guy and very knowledgeable about power lifting.  Really enjoyed his East Coast column!  Congrats on the book!
