I just shared a new video on YouTube from Columbus, Ohio — filmed one day before the Arnold Classic.
In the video, I meet up with my coach Giuseppe for a final chest workout during peak week. After more than a month of check-ins through photos and video, it was the first time he saw my condition live again before stepping on stage.
We walk through how we approach training this close to competition: controlled weights, clean execution, and keeping the muscles active without creating unnecessary fatigue. At this stage, the goal isn’t building anything new. The focus is on maintaining activation, moving the body, and making sure everything responds well as peak week adjustments come together.
Giuseppe also shares his perspective on my condition, the lineup at this year’s Arnold, and what we’re aiming for heading into the show.
