1. What two words best describe your build/physique/figure? Why?: Muscular with Freaky Legs. I have tons of dense muscle from years of powerlifting and my legs are just genetically freaky.
2. What part of your body deserves to be honored in the “Physique Hall of Fame?” Why?: If one feature stands out on me, it would be my quads. I have extremely developed medialis longus muscles.
3. When did you first realize your body was sexy, appealing or exemplary?: Definitely in high school. I was on the football team. We had a very good strength-training program, and my body responded to weight training. It wasn’t long before I noticed that when I took my shirt off, people looked at me differently.
4. In the quiet moment before you begin a workout, what’s the first thing that goes through your mind? And what is the last thing that goes through your mind as you conclude a workout?: Before I begin a workout, I actually pray. I say a short prayer to the Lord to keep me from injury and allow me give 100 percent effort.
5. Who is your physique/fitness idol or role model, and what body part would you steal from that person for a day?: James Flex Lewis…his calves and his freaky hamstrings!
6. Who or what inspires you to accept the daily challenge of building your physique/figure?: I have a tremendous faith in God. He gives me the power to overcome obstacles that would normally deter most bodybuilders.
7. If someone wrote a book or song about your body, what would it be called?: Wow…they already have – “High Hopes” by Frank Sinatra
8. Your name appears as an option on a restaurant menu, and you order the dish/beverage. What food/drink does the waiter deliver to your table?: 151 Rum
9. What would a talking mirror say about your body if you stood naked in front of it?: “At times, you look like a 9 but, son, DAMMT, YOU CAN BE A 10!”
10. If you received the ultimatum: workout or die— but your other favorite thing was simply too hard to resist— what is that one other thing you love (besides loved ones, family, friends, etc.) so much that you would actually choose it over your “final workout?”: A great meal at Premium Steak House.
