I can't say I blame him. Kai did look WAY stronger last year following the O, and Gifted was the word.
WHAT ARE THE PLANS AFTER NEXT WEEKEND? DO YOU PLAN ON DOING ANY POST-OLYMPIA APPEARANCES OR SHOWS?
Competing, no. There will be no other shows but the Olympia from here on out. I'm in a position where I can do that now, plus I need to focus on improving business for my companies. The Olympia requires focus.
Once that's over, I need some type of break. If I get on a plane and fly to Madrid to compete, I can't interact with fans like I want to. It will be nice to go over and interact like I want to and answer questions about the company and network with other business leaders. I want to be ready for all of that. I can now devote more time to that as president of a company.
I love handshake tours. I enjoy meeting people. That's part of my personality, and now it will be good to do that from a business perspective. As for appearances, this year, I will be in Spain, Dubai, Prague, I think Turkey, Florida for guest posing, home, then L.A. to guest pose, New York for more business and networking, and then my own show in Wyoming on October 25. I'm a busy man.
