I wish I’d gone as my interest started in 1980. Also winning the Masters Olympia in 1994 • How he was a man of many talents – including being a classical opera singer of profes-sional quality • Training with Bill Pearl as a mentor and how this may have shaped his approach to training and nutrition • How he competed over 4 decades – competing and winning multiples titles from 1966 through to 1994 • Competed with the IFBB, WBBG, AAU and NABBA • Was training at 67 (2019) so is 69 at the time of our recording the podcast • Great poser.
