I was doing a posing coaching session yesterday with a first time competitor preparing for a contest coming up in August.

One of my favorite features in my latest DVD release “Posing to Win” is the bonus “lost” footage we included. When going through tapes we stumbled across footage that I didn’t think we had.

One element of “I Want to Look Like That Guy” is Stuart MacDonald actually competes in a bodybuilding contest as his end goal. So that meant he not only had to get “bodybuilding lean” he also needed to learn how to pose and present himself onstage. Along with overseeing his training and diet I also had to teach him how to pose. We worked on presentation weekly as we got...
