How Did You Get Started?

My Dad used to body build back in the days when he lived in Barbados. When I was a young lad he first introduced me to the barbell. He also gave me my first bodybuilding magazine, and from that point I was hooked.

What Workout Plan Worked Best For You?

I like to train 4 days a week. 2 days on 1 off 2 days on 2 off. I cover my entire body over a 3 day period.

  • Day 1: Legs and Shoulders
  • Day 2: Chest and Biceps
  • Day 3: Back and Triceps
I also do 15 minutes of cardio 3 days a week.

What Nutrition Plan Has Worked Best For You?

I eat about 7 to 8 times a day. Usually very clean, taking in around 1.5 to 2.0 grams of Protein per pound of bodyweight each day. I like to cycle Carbs over a 3 day period, alternating between High, Low and No carb regimen. I follow this cycle for six days followed by one cheat day to end the week where I eat what I want, when I want and how much I want. During contest prep there are no cheat days.

What Supplements Have Given You The Greatest Gains?

I would say that Protein is a must. It is the foundation of any good bodybuilding diet. I also enjoy the effect of a good Creatine load. If used at the right time the extra power gained can really get you over your sticking point.

Why do you love Bodybuilding?

I love the feeling of pushing my body to the limit, and returning bigger and stronger. I enjoy sculpting the body like it is an uncut piece of marble and just chiseling it to perfection with hard work. What can I say? I just love the challenge.

What Are Your Future Bodybuilding Plans?

I plan to push myself hard over the next year and God willing return next season to compete in the WNSO regionals, The Mr. Montreal's and the Quebec's.

What One Tip Would You Give Other Bodybuilders?

Aim for a good all round aesthetic look. Huge is not good enough. Set your goal and got for it. Where there is a will there is a way...
