The outfit is killing me. Guess I would be dating myself if I admitted I actually remember when dudes wore that stuff to work out in.

He talking about doing inclines primarily for chest in the video and the 2 on 2 off. I remember him being one of the few that used 2 on 2 off.

I think I still have that vhs somewhere

I remember that his routine worked well with the work schedule for being on the fire department. He managed the job and competing successfully back then.

yep, firefighting and bodybuilding work pretty good together 80-90% of the time. Hell, when I'm not out on a call I'm usually eating, cooking, or just chillin'. You get the occasional pain in the ass shift, but for the most part it works out very well.

He had a TREMENDOUS physique. Won a lot of Pro shows. He looked like nothing in street clothes, and then he took them off

Im still wondering how much he weighs in this video? You think 200lbs or more?

He said that lower reaps work slow twitch fiber, and higher reps work fast twitch fiber. Maybe he got confused with his words, but I always thought high reps was slow twitch

He got his pro card at 198 and he wasn't that much heavier if at all as a pro.

Wow! I hadn't read anywhere that he had married. A kid is just a much a surprise and good news.

I talkeed to Porter a few years back. He was talking about when he was at his biggest (260 I believe he said) in the off-season. He said that when they'd get the fire runs...his co-workers would have to help him put his fire coat on as he was too big to get into it himself.LOL
