3 days to Worlds






Hoorah.  3 days to go.  Leaving tomorrow for Greenville to contest the Masters World Championships.  All the work has been done, slight tweak in the back- but I will adapt and overcome!!  Weather is calling for 104 heat index- very hot and humid!!  At least it will be good to keep the muscles nice and warm...  Well, I will post when its over.  Thanks all for your support!

World Championships, May 26

Well maybe your wondering about my last game, Southern MD.  I decided it would be better to heal a little more and train more intensely for the World Championships.  With a little less than 3 weeks to go, I am feeling better than I have felt in a while.  Last season really took its toll on me and I am just now healed up from it.  I competed in 15 games in 4 different countries.  Its bad enough the toll competition takes on you let alone traveling.  I really have to give a lot of credit to my supplement sponsors, Bio Rhythm and Standard Process.  Without these great supplements it would have taken longer to heal up!  Bio Rhythm http://www.biorhythm-ads.com/  supplies me with pre (new formula coming) / post (Afterglow) workout and a great quality Protein called Whole Gains.  Ask for Tim Gatti, he really knows his stuff!
Standard Process www.standardprocess.com  supplies me with my Vits/Mins and herbs..  They only sell to Physicians, so go find a Chiropractor or MD that sells these great products.  All their blends are from whole foods.. 
If any of you are in the Greenville, SC area on the 26th of May- come on by and watch us compete..  It is going to be a huge Masters World Championships http://www.scottishmasters.org/   with well over 100 Athletes from all over the world.  Click on who's coming.  I have 20 guys in my class.

Spring is in the air

The fresh smell of cut grass, the birds chirping, but most of all the beginning of the Highland game season. Preparations are going as planned for my first game 28 April in Southern Maryland. My body is holding up OK.
Special thanks to my sponsors Bio Rhythm for their great pre and post workout recovery products, Standard Process for their great Whole food Vit/Min/Herbs and Family Chiropractic for keeping me lined up!
Without this support my body would have broken down long ago.
Get out and exercise, eat whole some foods, take your supplements and visit your Chiropractor weekly and be all you can be!

First up San Antonio


A little change in the schedule. San Antonio HG will be my first game this year, March 31. Training is right on schedule, bodyweight holding at 288-290, fitness levels are way up and overall performance is steadily climbing!
I took a Coaching job for the local High School starting mid Feb through mid April. Coaching shot put and discus. This should be fun!!
So I hope everyone is training in their own way and treating your bodies with the respect it deserves...
