As long as it took to get here, just like that, it’s over. That’s why you have to appreciate every moment. Saturday, I stepped back onstage after 10 years away from competing, but never away from the lifestyle. At 46, I wanted to prove to myself that I still had it in me. This prep tested me physically, mentally, and emotionally, but with faith in God, I kept going. I love this lifestyle, and leading by example as a coach matters to me.

Having my athletes, friends, and colleagues there made it even more special. Thank you…it meant more than you know. Here’s my lightweight bodybuilding prejudging routine, my first time back onstage in a decade. More from this weekend to come….
