Actually he is a Personal Trainer. No longer a bouncer.

thx man! ( yea i know i dont have the "lines or the pleasing shape" of a Richard Jones but i think i can build a brutally powerfull physique ala Quincy Taylor tho not in his league, im 6 ft 1 or 2" so it will take time but ill get there) and Knny.....

Mike, your physique would never be good enough for bodybuilding.

How's your strength?

Maybe powerlifting is your thing but you have long limbs so I doubt that too.

& like I said on the other thread....don't give up your night job.

LOL! no offense bro but..............your opinion doesn't mean shit to me, I'm going to keep on doing what i do best, training hard and heavy,putting on size and growing,eating living sleeping this lifestyle,pushing myself past barriers,it has taken me this far,lets see how much further i can take it(when i was a skinny 155 lbs at 6 ft 2" people said id never get this far) if i listened to every armchair quarterback about how id never make it i would have given up a long time ago.....................

funny thing Mike........

I never said I didn't think you looked big. I also give you props when deserved.

The truth, which I post, is not to demean....rather just stating an opinion.

In my opinion you have small calves comapared to your thighs & your forearms are small compared to your upper arms. This is because you have long limbs with a short muscle attachment. You have a big upper torso (back/chest/shoulders) & good sized arms. They are actually pretty big to the point where they overshadow your thighs. You don't have a physique that looks like a competing bodybuilder rather you have a big powerful looking physique that looks like you work out hard, heavy, & serious.

Now that you're going to be a PT....would you lie to your clients?

I hope not.

Fair enough..............ill probally never compete at Bodybuilding,But id like to give it a shot,otherwise whats the point of killing myself,without a goal its hard to push oneself 100% everyday(whether its in the gym,diet, cardio,rest etc),i have dedicated a good portion of my life to this goal,to not see it thru would make me a quitter.......

Well, maybe you can do a masters show somewhere

Knny, what is up with you? A sensless attack on Michael. I am surprised. Michael may not be a "professional" body builder, but he has worked hard to get to the size he is. I definitely give him props in the personal training aspect. He is a great trainer, this I know from experience. I was 35 pound heavier and seriously not in shape (out of breath at climbing one set of stairs). I went from a size 9-10 to a size 5 since February and must admit that my stamina has increase immensely. I have faith that he will go far as a trainer. He has over 20 years of experience in BB under his belt and now with the ISSA certification, there is nothing stopping him. So quit your squawkin and give some credit where credit is due. Otherwise...zip it.

I was just stating merely the obvious....nothing more & nothing to put Mike down.

I wish him luck & I am sure he'll do well.

I won't blow smoke up his ass & tell him that he has a future in competitive bodybuilding & don't worry, I am in no position to think that I am any better in anyway. I know my faults & I realized years ago that competitve bodybuilding won't be something I could have a lot of success with. That doesn't mean I still don't train heavy & hard. I have put more emphasis in other parts in my life where I know I have a good future with. If Mike wants to purse bodybuilding & living a bodybuilding lifestyle.....I say go for it. Do what you want to do & what makes you happy.
