DAVE PALUMBO, EVAN CENTOPANI, & PJ BRAUN THANKS GUYS!!!

These three individuals have been a huge help to me the past 16 weeks of my training. Lets start with PJ. I met PJ over 4 years ago when I was in college, everyone knew I was a bodybuilder and always told me I had to meet this huge kid named PJ. Awhile went by and one night I headed to Benagan's to grab some food and PJ was bouncing at the door, that night I didn't make it to my table. I sat there for hours talking to PJ about training, dieting, and competing, and from there we became training partners. Through the years of training with PJ we both learned a lot from each other from bodybuilding, and more so friendship, PJ and I have had our fall outs, which we laugh about to this day. Since then PJ moved in with his girlfriend whom I love Nicole in CT, where she competes in Figure and took 3rd at the Jr USA's as her second show after winning the overall at the Atlantic States the prior year. PJ has been like a brother to me I became close with him and his family. If there's ever a problem PJ is always there to help and give advice, I can thank him enough for all that he has done for me, Thanks bro you mean more to me than you'll ever know..

Now for Evan. This is pretty funny, I worked at GNC throughout college to make it buy, and worked with a buddy of mine named Andy, who also knew PJ. He would always tell me you have to meet my buddy Evan who lives in Trumbull CT, he is the biggest guy I know. I told him no way is this kid bigger than PJ, at that time PJ was the biggest armature I knew. After college I got transferred to Trumbull as a manager for GNC and met Evan at World's Gym. The day I met him was only a few days after he won his first show at the Atlantic States, I was like HOLY SHIT!! This kid is unreal, I met him along with Ron Rich who is an outstanding bodybuilder as well. Me and Evan hit it off from the start. Evan would always stop into GNC and bull shit with me and we would catch up on workouts a few times a week. Since I met Evan a lot has changed, he's another one, whom I went from not knowing to becoming best friends with. After I won my class and was National Qualified in the Gold's Classic after some help with PJ with my contest prep, Evan told me he had been working with Dave Palumbo for the JR Nationals and Nationals and I should hook up with him. I was skeptical at the time because I had got dropped from my last nutritionist who was an asshole, and I wasn't a big name in the sport so what would Dave want with me. But I followed his advice and did. Evan you have been there a lot for me the past 3 years I can't thank you enough for all the time and dedication you put into helping me prepare for the Mets, Jr USA's, and now well be going together to the Nationals, a time to remember...LOVE YA BRO

NOW MR. JUMBO PALUMBO...I talked to Dave for the first time in the end of December, great, open, down to earth guy, he told me take a few pics and send them to him and well go from there. So the next day went to my girlfriends house snapped some shots sent them to Dave, received an email back asap. He said I had ridiculous legs and a great physique, I was shocked because my old nutrition didn't think I had shit to work with. After going back and forth via e-mail I finally took a trip to see Dave, we sat down went over my contest prep and got started, it wasn't easy. I was used to dieting the "old school" way carbs, low fats, high protein, cardio here and there, not with Daves' Methodology it was 16 weeks of no carbs, cardio, high fats, and a CHEAT MEAL....I thought a CHEAT MEAL..AWESOME. Well it's awesome alright until he pulls that away, along with your fats and your eating just protein. But who can complain, after winning two shows under Dave, being sponsored by Species, and gaining a great FRIENDSHIP with him and his fiance Colette, I couldn't be more happier...Thank you Dave for all your hard work and dedication you put into me and you have inspired me to become so much more than a bodybuilder, you are a great person and I can't thank you enough for all your help, your more than a nutritionist your a great Friend!!!
Thanks you guys, Love everyone of you
