Whats next for me? I am constantly asked when are you going to compete next, and up til now deep down I have never really thought seriously of retiring, as I love competing so much.

But the other day whilst training I said to my training partner, don't think I will compete again.

Why? he asked.

Sometimes you just have to know when to hold them and know when to fold them.

I dont think my body can do it anymore, I dont think I am good enough anymore.

But you won the last three he replied.

For the past 17 years bodybuilding has been my life, but the past 7 years it has consumed me, it is my work, my hobby, I am in the gym all day Personal Training people, I spend weekends at bodybuilding shows, I write for mags, I don't do anything else.

Everyday for months, I get up, train and eat and train, I go to bed early because I am too tired to do anything else, I have missed friends birthdays, weddings and I don't go out.

I have done alot in my life but I have also missed out on things.

So at the moment I am sole searching, trying to find a path for the rest of my life to follow.

It is hard to ever think of not doing what I love, oh I will continue to train as I love training even more, and I am just getting use to having a training partner, after all these years of training alone.

 

So stay tuned for the next chapter in my life.
