Depends on the role, but I thought Mickey Rourke was excellent in The Wrestler

Favorite Band or Performer

Bruce Springsteen

Favorite Food

Sushi

Favorite Cheat Day Treats

During my last diet I scheduled a cheat meal every Saturday night all the way up to the contest. For some reason I craved the same meal every week: One entire "works" pan pizza from Pizza Hut, followed my a mint chocolate chip ice cream cone.

Favorite Automobile

I have a Mini Cooper S right now which is a blast to drive, but sometimes I hear I look funny because it is so small.

Idea of a Perfect Vacation

I've never been to the south pacific, but that looks fun.

Favorite TV Program(s)

 I watch HGTV, Discovery Channel, and the Colbert Report.

What would you be doing if you weren't a Bodybuilder?

I'd compete in some other individual challenge like running, mountain biking, or golf.

Long Term Bodybuilding Ambitions

I've reached my bodybuilding goals, but would still like to step on an IFBB pro stage as a lifetime natural athlete.

What you like most about Bodybuilding?

The journey leading up to a contest.

What you dislike most about Bodybuilding?

The egos and the drugs. I've never felt that I fit in at most bodybuilding shows, but am still drawn to the sport.

What advice would you give other bodybuilders?

If you haven't competed yet, do it! If you're a seasoned competitor, choose shows that may be above your head.

A little more about you...

I'm a nerd!
