Mission Accomplished - Master Pro Card #2

*Old Navy* · 11-05-2006, 09:02 PM

Training For My Master Pro Card At 63 – Final Journal Post

My first Journal, "Training for My First Body Building Competition at Age 61," chronicled my 10 months of training to enter my first contest in March 2005 and five other contests I entered that year, the last one in July 2005.

My second Journal, "Training for My Second Year of Competition at Age 62," covered my training and contests from December 2005 through the 2006 FAME WNSO Body Building and Fitness World Championships in June.

I started this, my third Journal, “Training For My Master Pro Card at 63,” on June 26, 2006, as I began training to earn a Natural Pro Master Card by the end of the year. (The complete journal is posted in the Workout Log thread)

Mission accomplished.

On September 30th I received my Natural Pro Master Card at the National Gym Association (NGA) National Bodybuilding and Figure World Championship in Duluth, Georgia, Carlos Jordan’s show.

I received a second Natural Pro Master Card at the International Drug Free Athletics (IDFA) Canadian Classic II in Toronto, Canada on November 4th, Shaun Campbell’s show.

The full story of 2006 overlaps in my last two Journals: Ten competitions in ten months. It has been one heck of a year.

From February 25th to November 4th, I competed in three NPC shows, two FAME SNBF shows, one FAME WNSO World Championship, one NGA show, two OCB shows and one IDFA contest. Along the way, I placed First in an NPC National Qualifier Open Bantam Weight Class, won a World Championship in Men’s Masters 60+, a Best Poser Award, several 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishes in open height, weight and age classes and two Natural Pro Master Cards.

I also met some outstanding male and female athletes, many of whom have become my friends.

I need to offer a few Thanks now.

First, I thank God for giving me the ability to accomplish what I have done, in His Name and for His purpose.

Second, I thank my family, Vivian, my wife, and my two daughters, Christina and Danielle. Without their support and love, I would have been unable to do any of this.

Third, my thanks to Sean “Sully” Sullivan, my coach and friend, who showed me how to do the work and to bring out the best of what I had.

Thanks to Neal Grossman, Will Lantrip, Milt Harrell, Dana Fitzpatrick, Tommy Hawk, just a few of the great athletes and friends who have advised and encouraged me.

Thanks to my two sponsors, Steve Evans of Ultimate Dumbbell Fitness and Silas Gold of Golden-Images for their friendship and their support. And of course, thanks to the good people at Beverly International and Designer Supplements.

Thanks to my two training partners, David Gallahan, Jr. and Bruce Ovitt, who “allow” me to run our workouts. And to my new bodybuilding bud, John Rossman, who traveled to Toronto with me and won the Open Middleweight Class and received his second Pro Card at the Canadian Classic.

And, finally, Thanks to fellow Board members like Marc, Dan, Bobby, Val, Wil and Dunya, who have followed my progress this year and offered valuable input. And, of course, a special thanks to my web master and friend, Clayton Dye, who developed and manages my web site, www.BodyBuildingSenior.com.

I apologize to anyone I missed thanking. I’m hungry. Now, if you will all excuse me, I am going to get something to eat.

I will soon begin a new Journal, “Training For My First Pro Master Competition at 64.” I will enter my first Pro Master Contest sometime in 2007…Stay Tuned.

You've done something at your age that many will not see at all, at any age! Very inspirational to us who have yet stepped on stage but need a push to start working on it.

Thanks and job well done.
