Weight: 145.6 pounds - No Change From Yesterday. Over the weekend, my nutrition coach, Eric Brugh, the 2007 NABBA Masters and Overall National Champion (I love to promote this fine Warrior), had me do a high carb load/cheat day on Saturday to see how my body would react. It reacted by adding four pounds of bodyweight. I had some photos taken Sunday night, which I sent to Eric. He was happy with the results of our "test." Me, too. I have since lost two of those added pounds and have two to go to get back to Friday's weight.

I'm feeling strong in spite of my contest prep. I am pumped and ready to get going. Four more weeks until the FAME Worlds.
I am judging the 2008 NGA Magic City Bodybuilding and Figure Championships in Hoover, Alabama (Birmingham) on Saturday. I am also practicing my posing for my Guest Poser appearance at the 2008 NGA Carolina Night of Champions in Greensboro, NC on June 7th. I will be judging at that contest, too.

I was interviewed by CBS News Radio in Los Angeles via phone today to talk about Harrison Ford's new movie and how realistic it is for a 62 year-old actor to play a "action hero." They wanted to relate my bodybuilding career to Ford's role as Indiana Jones and asked me several questions about weight training, diet and competitions as a senior athlete. The live radio interview lasted about five minutes.
I am honored to be included on the 2008 FAME World Championships poster that is being distributed to promote the contest in Toronto on June 13-15

Friday & Saturday, May 23 and 24, 2008, The 2008 NGA Magic City Bodybuilding and Figure Championships, Hoover (Birmingham), Alabama
A full house greeted the men and women athletes at the Hoover High School Auditorium in Birmingham, Alabama on Saturday for the first-ever natural bodybuilding and figure competition held in this city. Hoover High School is famous for the MTV series "Two-A-Days," which was shot on location at the school.
On Friday evening, the athletes checked in at the Better Fitness Nutrition Center in Pelham, a store owned by the show's promoter, Jason Thornton. The athlete's that needed it were weighed to determine their class and everyone took a urinalysis test to determine their seven-year drug-free status. The NGA requires a seven-year period from use of illegal muscle enhancing drugs.
On Saturday, Laura Tourtellot, affectionately known in the body-building world as "Turtle," started Prejudging at 11:15 AM with the Teen Class. This was followed by Men's Novice, Men's Masters, Women's Figure and the Open Men's classes. Laura kept things moving and we were finished with the morning session by 1 PM.
The Athletes returned to the Hoover Auditorium for a 4:30 meeting and then prepared for the 6:15 PM start of the Evening Show. NGA Master Pro, Scott "Old Navy" Hults kicked off the proceedings with an a capella singing of our National Anthem. He also judged the show, along with Guest Poser, NGA Pro Figure Nicole Weeks. All of the competitors brought their best to the stage in hopes of winning a coveted NGA Pro Card. Two athletes won their card that night: Eddy Smith, the Open Men's Middleweight Champion and Adrianne Egan, the Women's Figure Champion. Best Poser went to Lightweight Champion, Kennett Washington, who traveled from South Carolina for the show.
Feedback from several competitors and from the audience was very positive. The enthusiastic crowd enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and obvious camaraderie of a drug-free competition and to a person, the athletes vowed to return next year to have a go at the 2009 NGA Magic City Bodybuilding and Figure Championship, which promises to be a much bigger event.

I'm looking forward to the start of my contest season in just a few short weeks. I believe I will hit the stage on June 14th in Toronto in the best shape of my life. This has been a good contest prep for me. I will only lose if someone better comes along and not because I wasn't 100 percent prepared.

Today my training partner and I had a good shoulders, back and biceps workout. We did two hard, three-sets of eight reps exercises, including machine shoulder press, machine press downs, seated rows, standing rows, shoulder rotation and biceps curls. We then worked on my training partner's form routine for his Senior Brown Belt test tomorrow in Karate and shot some one week out photos of me in the locker room.
I'm very close to being contest ready.

After the show, I will not 'celebrate' in the usual way, but instead get right back on to my contest prep for the 2008 FAME World Championships in one week.

Friday, June 6, 2008 - NGA Carolina Night of Champions, Greensboro, NC
I left Birmingham, Alabama at 7 AM this morning and after a stop in Atlanta, arrived in Greensboro, North Carolina at noon. The show's promoter, Marty Lotito, NGA Chairman for North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee, met me at the airport and drove me to our host hotel, the Marriott in town. The 2008 NGA Carolina Night of Champions is the first-ever drug free bodybuilding show in the state. Marty and his co-promoter, John Dabbs have done a great job with the set up. At check in, the athletes receive a cool "goodie bag" with a t-shirt, hat, shaker bottle, and a good supply of supplements. Nice. For a new show, they got some good sponsors, including GNC, Family Fitness and Scivation. All of the athletes take a polygraph to attest to being drug-free for seven years. The venue is the old Carolina Theatre an art deco landmark in the city. There is also a free-post party at a local club, Natty Greens, a few blocks away. I am looking forward to judging at this show and guest posing tomorrow evening.
My training partner, Michael Jackson, received his Senior Brown Belt in Karate last evening. Congratulations, Warrior. Now, go get your red and then your black belt.
I'm one week out from my next Pro Show, the 2008 FAME World Championships in Toronto. I will be ready to Rock and Roll on June 14th.

Monday, June 9, 2008, Five Days Until the 2008 FAME Grand Master Pro World Championships, Toronto, Canada
Weight: 142.0
I'm really pumped about my show this Saturday. Over the weekend I judged and guest posed at the 2008 N.G.A. Carolina Night of Champions in Greensboro, NC. I had a great time at the show and while judging the competitors on stage, I thought about my own contest next Saturday. I will be competing against Master Pros who are 55 years-of-age and older. At 65, I will be giving up 10 years to the young athletes I'm competing against, but I will be ready to take them on.
Today, my training partner and I worked our chest and triceps.

Thursday, June 12, 2008, two days until the 2008 FAME World Grand Master Pro Championships, Toronto, Canada.
Weight: 139.6 Pounds. 6.4% Body Fat
Today I trained my training partner and put him through a tough full-body comp workout.
I am carbing up for my show and am enjoying the food after a few days of carb depletion. I hope to come in hard, lean, full and in the best shape of my life for this show. Competing in the Grand Master Pro 55+ Class, I am giving up 10 years-of-age to the other Master Pros in the competition. I have to be at the top of my game and I am. I will leave for Toronto at 6 AM tomorrow and will compete at 7 PM Friday evening in a Fittest Couple competition as a warm up. My contest begins at 2:30 PM on Saturday and I will probably be on stage around 4 PM. The third finger of my right hand is empty. I hope to fill that finger with a FAME World Champion ring on Saturday.
