In 1990, when I was 19, I entered a bodybuilding contest to help lose weight. I dieted and trained twice a day for an entire year to get ready for the show. There is no such thing as a partial commitment when the final destination is walking through a curtain to pose in your skivvies in front of a crowd of strangers. I lost almost 100lbs in one year, I competed in electric blue trunks, I won best legs in my weight class and posed to “Still loving you” by the Scorpions.
