I am still a bodybuilder because when I train I try to stimulate hypertrophy. The motivation isn't there like it was 40 years ago. I will be 69 in September. Luke followed his dream. Many top Aussie bodybuilders went overseas to find glory and perhaps some money but most returned home empty handed. John Terilli, Adrian Batho, Terry Mitsos, and Luke Wood. Lee Priest is perhaps the most successful of the Aussie champions. Sonny Schmidt was from Samoa but did live here in Australia.
