TAKE AWAYS
- How did it all start?- I was determined to break out of my small home town and come to a place where art was the center of society
- “Squeaky”- I got the nickname because I was quite a small kid in my younger years. In high school I was on the football team and we were out on the field,. For a game and somehow I caught the ball and I freaked out and ran! As I ran I started squeaking like the pigs on our family farm because I felt like it helped me run… the bigger guys on the field started laughing and they slowed down, so it worked! But the nickname stuck.
- The more time I spent in the gym and started to fill out, the more I noticed women starting to speak to me…. So women were in fact my motivation- haha
- I believe the gym is a magical place! Its one of the only places where you can go in as one physical being and emerge as something completely different and some out as a powerful confident individual.
- I invite people to become anti-social at the gym to practice moving meditation
- Different people sculpt differently. Everyone does and needs something different. Martial Artists are lean, but man can they pack a punch, and body builders look huge, but they couldn’t fight worth anything..
