UPDATE
8/08: I
took 5th in the 202 class at the Europa Pro - Photos.
Congratulations to Bernadette Galvin and Hazal Nelson who had
a much better Europa than I did, you finished 1-2 in the pro figure.
Congratulations
to my friend and client Kathy Lee Priest on her best showing yet
at the Arnold Classic and on wining the New York Pro. I promise
that this year is going to be her best Olympia ever.

Also, congratulations to the my great friend and client Amber
DeFransesco, for winning the overall bodybuilding Jr. Nationals.
I promise that she is going to surprise everyone at the Nationals
this year. Also, to Jake for taking the Middleweight by surprise
and to Tim Rice, who took fifth at the JR. Nationals in the Light
Heavy with the best conditioning in the show. And to my boy Bryan
For taking 3rd in the Super Heavy at the Jr. USA and 4th in the
JR. Nationals - next year he will get his pro card!
Congratulations to my friends and my clients Gus Carter and Vinny
Galanti for earning their pro cards at the Master Nationals after
years of hanging in there; it finally paid off for the both of
you guys. Welcome to the IFBB. Also, congratulations to my boy
Everet for taking second behind Gus. I know that he is going to
be unbeatable at the North Americans. Also to the the 5th place
finishers Joe and Dennis Dougherty for their great showing and
I know that these 2 guys are going to be better then ever next
year.
Congratulations to my friends and clients on the great showing
at the USA. 2nd place finisher in the Super Heavy Kirk Defransisco,
for his best placing ever and I promise that you'll be unbeatable
at North Americans. 3rd to Super Heavy Grigori Atoyan, I promise
you brother that no one is going to touch you at this year's Nationals.
To Tamer, 4th place in Light Heavy, next year you're going to
be a force to reckon with. 4th Middleweight Jake, next year it
is going to be a different ball game, brother. 2nd place Welter
for 'ma man' Victor, what a great showing brother and I promise
you that next time you will bring the gold home.
UPDATE 12/7: I want
to congratulate my clients on their fine job at the Nationals.
It was disappointing at the same time, because so many were so
close to getting their pro card. Peter Putman took 2nd in the
Light Heavies, Tammy Patnode the Lightweights, Grigori Atoyan
2nd in the Super Heavies, Abbas Khatami 4th in the Heavies, Monty
Mabry 4th in the Light Heavies - I'm getting depressed just writing
about it, so let me stop here and apologize for not mentioning
everyone's name. WAIT 'TILL NEXT YEAR!
UPDATE 9/5: 23 PRO CARDS
I want to congratulate my clients on their fine job at the North
American. Mike horn finally got what he deserved, a masters overall
win and pro status. His wife Jan took her class and came so close
to getting her card too. She will get her card no later then next
year 's Masters Nationals!
Monty
Mabry's second place finish was his highest ever - next year we
need to work together for more than 8 weeks! In 2008 he will be
a force to reckon in whatever show he decides to enter! Kirk De
Francesco moved up class and he looked amazing - but I will need
more then 4 weeks to get him his pro card next year :). Michele
Dennis, hang in there sweetie you've had to many second place
finishes. I know that their is a first place for you next year
and pro card with it!
UPDATE 7/30: 22 PRO CARDS AND COUNTING! Congratulations
to all of my friends and clients on for the results they achieved
in the Summer NPC shows.
USAs:
DeShaun Grimez won the Heavyweight Class at the USAs to earn his
pro card. Catherine Anderson is also now an IFBB pro, winning
her class in figure and the overall title.

Light heavy weight winner Peter Putnam won the Light Heavies -
I promise you he will get his card at the Nationals this year.
Welterweight winner Mark Harris won his class also and is going
to be tough to beat at the Nationals too. And to my favorite client
Kevin Tomasini, you will get the respect you deserve at the North
American show coming up at the end of the month. Rudy Richards
had another top ten finish in the Super Heavies - I have a plan
for you and your card is coming soon!
Team
Universe: Congratulations to Hazale Nelson for getting her
pro card at the Team Universe C Class in Pittsburg.

Master
Nationals: Mike Horn took a close second in the Super Heavies
as did his wife Jan in her class. I promise you'll both go pro
soon. Also, congratulations to my beautiful client and friend
Michele Dennis for taking a close second in her class. And to
my big brother Anthony Finocchiaro, who has always listened and
believed in me - Welcome to the IFBB!
UPDATE
6/5:
As
promised, George showed up much improved at the Colorado
Pro, taking 6th overall. George will taking the rest of
the year to train and come back at nothing less than number 1
in 2008
UPDATE
5/29:
George
at the
Keystone Classic
I want to thank my fans for all of their support. I did my best
to be on that stage in the best shape that I can be without hurting
myself. The doc gave me the OK to train for the show only 10 weeks
out, so I basically had 6 weeks to diet down. I hope this weekend
you will see something different at the Colorado show.

I
also want to thank Optimum Nutrition and American Bodybuilding
for all of their support. They are a super company with a great
products and they are an awesome crew to work for.
