Thanks guys. I guess I was pretty good back in the day. One thing to tell you younger guys. There was a time when I was so strong and confident that I really felt if I never lifted a weight again and at age 60 I would still be able to bench 405. I was 26 then. That weight felt so light to me that I never thought I would be so weak not to be able to lift it. Well, now I almost 50 and I haven't lifted a weight in several months and I doubt I could do 315. I am moving this week back to the mainland and everything will change no matter what some have said. I just cannot get shit done here. This place will be where I come back when I decide never to do anything again. Till then I will just come back and visit my daughter and grandkids. Will be spending some time down in Puerto Aventuras near Cancun a few times a year but will be doing a lot of business traveling.
Planning to go to the Arnold, and FIBO next year with several other shows. I truly look like shit now and I will be at the Olympia and I am sure after the zillion of pictures that will be posted of me I will hear so much shit from you guys. But, you know as someone said it will push me. I am now involved with something that is making me get involved with many many shows and other things so I really need to do it this time. I have been offered an unreal amount of money as an incentive but I really need to do it so I feel good. I talk about my past a lot because back then I was in shape and could keep up with anyone and in most cases pass them up. So I guess i am stuck back there cause right now I ain't shit so I can only use my past as defense. I fuck around on here a lot cause "it is fun" but in real life I am a very fun guy when I am in shape. Right now I just feel like shit. Didn't even get out of the house to go to my grand daughters first birthday yesterday.
So I will be prepared for all the fat fucker jokes and shit that will happen starting at the Olympia. Getting ready for our resident Christian to be all over me. I am sure Liftstudios will have a whole gallery of my fat ass. And I think the person who said this place does push me is right. Especially this place is the only thing I do other than my work which I do either from my place or out at my pool. Now I have to be in the public eye again so reality will be setting in. Oh we'll see what happens.
