Did I just slow mo my @montreal_summum_classic posing routine and throw a breezy track on it. Absolutely.

Inspired by @edpalmeirapro who did this 🤣🙏🏽

This look we brought to Montreal was absolutely dialed tf in.

It still shocks me to this day watching the stage videos how full coach got me and the conditioning too 🤝🏽💪🏾

The posing was probably the best presentation I’ve had on stage and I think we completely nailed the head on all levels for this show 🙏🏽

The work that @seb.bertin @bertincoaching and I have done since 2024 is nothing short of amazing.

His passion for the game is real and working with him has been such an honor.

Our resume speaks for itself and I can’t wait to continue growing as bodybuilders in the sport but also from learning from him as a businessman and person.

In 2024 I enter my first ever show that wasn’t CPA or IFBB. It was a show made by @christianguzmanfitness that started off as a YouTube series and he turned it into a mega bodybuilding show.

It was honestly the kick start to my career and I’m forever thankful I had the opportunity to not only take the overall win but also meet so many incredible people that to this day I can call close friends and family.

Later that year I decided to make a run for the overall championship for summer shredding in Texas.

The winners of these shows win not only incredible memories but also a crazy amount of money for an amateur show.

I came 2nd in my class and truthfully that loss sparked a flame in me that led me to having an incredible off season to growth for my following show.

King Kong Classic.

My first ever introduction to the CPA IFBB league and this is where my career got serious.

After winning 1st in 3 classes but coming up short as the runner up to the overall, this once again made me realize the feeling of being so close to something and still not getting it.

I genuinely took that loss personal and told myself I’m not stepping on the stage until I’m ready to win an overall.

Now this show is what truly built my momentum.

Montreal summum this year is where I knew I belonged.

The package we brought this year was night and day from kingkong.

We added a good 11lbs of stage weight and took first in our class and won the overall.

This stage look I was so proud of but I knew the job wasn’t finished as I had nationals coming up in 2 weeks.

My first ever national show.

I set the expectation for myself that I’m not going into this show to lose.

I knew I had momentum I knew I belonged and I knew I have the look.

We took 1st in a very dominant and stacked class in class D. I was overwhelmed with joy being able to win

The Journey to becoming a Pro

9 years
14 shows
5 regional shows
9 Pro qualifiers

We learned a lot over the past 9 years.
We learned through experience.
We learned through loses.
We learned through a lot of emotional decisions.
We learned how to be a bodybuilder.

This was gods path for me ✝️

Show 1: Leigh Brandt Muscle Classic 2017

Open Class A Win
Lost in overall

140lbs soaking wet

Like anyone’s first show - this was the hardest prep I’ve ever done. Not just because i didn’t truly know what i was getting myself into - it was mainly the methods that were used. None of it makes sense to this day.

I was told to use gear right away.
Chicken rice and broccoli for 5 meals.
No salt, no stevia, no hot sauces. Just plain meals for 18 weeks.
On my reverse I was told not to ask for any substitutions.

I said F that and gained 25lbs in 2 weeks. I gained 25lbs not because i threw in the towel - it’s because the guidance was not there.

Show 2: Vancity Showdown 2020

This was when the CPA formed and I was able to be in true novice and novice again.

True Novice win
Novice win
Open Class A win
Overall Win

163lbs here but also not lean enough compared to what I got to for my pro win. If I was to guess I should have been 156 here or so.

I took 3 years off because god blessed me with Jaden.

This was a prep that was much smoother than the first. It was my longest prep for a regional show. I started prep in November 2019 and this show was late into 2020 because Covid kept cancelling shows. I was aiming for LBMC 2020 when Covid hit. I was 13 days out when this happened.

I pushed through prep with equipment i had at home and bought a Stationary Bike for cardio.

This prep showed me that I could stay locked in for an extended amount of time. I could do more than what people consider the length of a prep. After this prep I stopped counting how long I was in prep and I just got it done.

Show 3: North Americans 2021

This show taught me humility. It humbled me.

3rd call outs. 163lbs here. Same as my last show but much leaner.

I truly thought I was turning pro here. I’ve excelled and won at every sport growing up and was not used to losing s

Deans pro card winning routine from prejudging.

The second I saw his foot step off those stairs and onto the stage I have every bit of confidence in the world that we were taking this one home.

As always - @bavee_ifbbpro perfecting this routine.

We didn’t LOVE how he executed his back pose at prejudge so made some big adjustments for finals that are a huge reason he was able to lock it down in the overall.

Well, that’s a wrap for the @nseastcoastopen truly one of the best experiences of my bodybuilding career. From the people backstage to the production and everyone who offered a helping hand or a few kind words, thank you for making it such a memorable weekend.

To everyone who helped me push through the trenches, put up with my low moods, or listened to me talk about food nonstop… you deserve a medal hahaha.

To everyone @fitnessfx who offered words of encouragement or a fist bump when the hoodie was up and the headphones were in—you’re all appreciated more than you know.

@brentchabassol this wouldn’t of been possible without you. You’ve always pushed me to be the best version of myself and reminded me to never put a ceiling on what I can achieve. Thank you brother. It’s a blessing to call you my coach.

Mom and Dad, thank you for your unconditional love and support through every step of this journey. The post-show baked goods deserve an honourable mention too 😂❤️

Now it’s time to put on some size and do it all again next year. This is just the beginning 🤝
