My own journey into health and fitness began in 1981. For my sixteenth birthday,
I received a set of plastic coated barbells and dumbbells complete with exercise wall charts. My first gym was my dad's garage. It was freezing cold in the winter and too hot in the summer, but the rent was free.

So I set about my task. Something inside me drove me to push myself hard. After several months I began to notice small changes in my physique, and as I grew stronger, my self-esteem and confidence grew in tandem. This inspired me to keep going, setting small but achievable goals each step of the way. The road has been long, but I have stayed true to my cause. Over the years, I have learned that consistency is the key to success. I have made health and fitness part of my lifestyle. Some nineteen years after my first workout in my dad's garage, I was standing on the stage of the Mr. Universe competition, competing against the best amateur bodybuilders in the world. I placed third from a line-up of twenty-six athletes. I consider this to be the highlight of my bodybuilding career. Working together, we can make it happen. I have trained professional golfers, club level tennis players, high school and college athletes, corporate CEO's, businessmen, post-natal women, stay at home moms, seniors, arthritis sufferers, law enforcement officers, power lifters and both male and female competitive bodybuilders.
