I am joining the PDI for a few reasons, like i say on my website I'm going to be 39 this year and after being in the Nationals 9 times, i know the level of bodybuilder i am....i have no fantasy of being a top bodybuilder.
I have ALWAYS had a full time job, never has bodybuilding been anything but a hobby to me.
The NPC and EVERYONE that I have ever done work with has always treated me fair, and with respect.
The problems between the IFBB/NPC and Wayne has nothing to do with me, I have lost my heart to train, thinking it could be my year this year in getting a pro card.
If Wayne didn't come along, I'd be taking this year off, and doing the Masters Nationals next year.
Back in 94, Shaw Ray told me how to market my USA win, and for the last 12 years I have been under contract with one company or another.....the last 9 years it has been UNIVERSAL NUTRITION.
I am a fan of bodybuilding, it will be interesting to see if this all works out...i wouldn't be doing it if i didn't think it was right for me.
to everyone who is supporting me decision...thank you
and to everyone who is not.....its all good, i think hearing it all makes bodybuilding better for everyone.
