Arnold Classic and 15.5 weeks out

It's been a while since I updated this, but I have been busy with prep and life, haha. I just got back from the Arnold Classic and it was an experience to say the least. The expo was insane, and altogether had around 200,000 attendants.

I met or saw a lot of notable people in this industry. Here is the list (not including the competitors from the night show):

    Arnold
    Lee Haney
    Jay Cutler
    Phil Heath
    Flex Lewis
    Kai Greene
    Steve Kuclo
    Victor Martinez
    Shawn Rhoden

The night show was incredible. It was amazing to see the physiques these guys brought to the stage. Pictures don't do these guys justice, and until you see it, it's hard to explain.

Thanks to Europa for the hospitality, as I had VIP passes to their booth. This is where I met one of my idols Lee Haney, 8x Mr. Olympia. He greeted me as if we had been friends for years, and even sat down to just chit chat with me. Lee invited me to a show he is promoting in Atlanta in August, and wished me luck in my upcoming contest.

As for my prep, I am on track and didn't falter in Columbus...in fact, I lost 3 pounds from all the walking! I am currently 108 days out, and expect to be in insane condition come show time.

I will be posting updates on clients soon!
