Amy and I celebrated our 6th year wedding anniversary! Not sure how she has put up with me for over 10 years!

Amy and I are now both board members for the It's My Heart - Boston which is a non-profit organization created to provide support, spread awareness, educate and advocate for those affected by Acquired and Congenital Heart Defects by creating alliances with fellow families, hospitals, support groups and the community.

As most of you are aware I have grown up with a heart condition which required me to have open heart surgery at the age of 7, you can read about it here if you would like. It will give you a little background on who I am! As for today I recently had my last 3 month check up with my cardiologists and they said everything looks fine. I will not have to go back for another year which is good because since I was having palpitations and other issues they placed me on exercise restriction until they figured out what was actually going on. Needless to say in this year and a half I was some what depressed and went from 220lbs and 16% BF to 250lbs and 34% BF. Umm can we say not good. Recently my doctors said I could return to exercising but low weight high reps! Which is cool but their definition of low weight is like 50 freaking pounds! I asked them about trying to compete and they are concerned about the training. I can understand that. So we will have to see, one step at a time.

I will be training at night after the Amy and kids go to bed because it is the only time I can train. On top of being Mr. Mom, I work 2 jobs, one as a 24/7 job scheduler for the family business, Nappy Crane Services Inc. and I also started Phenom Labs. Both of these take most of my time.


We went to our friend’s 2008 Wacky Tacky Christmas party.

Here is a pic of myself that my mom took at her house after the USBF Pro/Am this year in November.

It was about 11pm and she wanted to get a pic of me before I went home. She knew that my color

would be gone and my stomach would be bloated by the next day. lol

It was the night before the spring show (Spirit of America). I think Steve won his pro card the next day.

He was mad because we were chaperoning a prom and we couldn't eat or drink anything there. :-)

James Deighan with his beloved bulldog, Adrienne, shot in the car on the way to the gym. Mel and James invited me to come visit them in Pittsburgh and we got in a workout. They always bring their bulldog to the gym. The owner likes her and actually keeps special toys behind the counter for the dog to play with.
