First off let me say thanks for the support and education from this site, it has done nothing but push me to do better....Now with that being said, let me give you a little back ground.
Been lifting since 2000 (all over the place) and seriously or competing in the years 2009 middle, 2010 LH, 2011 middle.
After being talked into doing a show in 2009 the diet was done by myself. Because why?? I'm a trainer and I know it all....lol. Was I wrong. But hey, it was a learning experience and fun.
I meet a local guy here LENNY, not quite the normal guy, lol. Genetic gift for Zeus himself. He also was a middle. Being a member of this site I turned to help from Phil Hernon...Can't say enough good thing about him...Felt great and a no B.S. guy. Constantly concerned with health and pushed me too do better. In 2011 I went with a guy named Alex Azarian that Lenny had been using and bouncing ideas off of.. You want to talk about conditioning!!!! Great guy and a person as a whole. Again I learned new methods and approaches to better myself. Thanks!
In 2012 I had a curve ball thrown at me when I fell through a roof at a house fire in April due to my job
needless to say, I tore my should up bad. Made it to the USA's to cheer a local friend on and decided I wasn't done yet! Had major surgery done in August and immediately had nose surgery the next month for a deviated septum.... Go Big Or Go Home, lol.
After taking a entire year off plus a few months I reached out to a guy named----Shelby Starnes----
I'd been in contact with him for a while and waited until I could at least give him 80%.
Shelby, my wife ( who is going to turn some heads!!!) and I started hitting it mid October 2013 and never looked back.
Now I don't know about some but I feel like Shelby and I's relationship is like knowing when you know. This shit is going to be good.... No I'm not gay...So all you homos calm down
.
It was rough at first for me because I couldn't really see what he was seeing. I had been out for quite awhile. We had to take it a bit slow due to me just getting back into the gym.
Hands down, I'm not sure I could be any happier with anyone else in this industry PERIOD.
Shelby listens to what you say.... And answers with a response almost immediately and sometimes with a explanation even. Can you believe it?!?! Yes he does this and if you don't get it, then all you have to do is ask.
He using a very SAFE, methodical approach keeping health on his mind.
Oh and one of the best parts I can EAT!!!! But also keep this in mind if you need to shed a few pounds we may not be eating like your buddy that's 8%, lol. Why????!
Because every diet he does is tailored for YOU not 20 other people and if you need adjustments or have a issue, let him know and he will make the proper adjustments.
Enough rambling but Shelby's the Mo-Fo!!
Thanks and I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Oh there is one down side to using Shelby... You grow, get stronger, and get leaner.
