I got the nickname “Midwest Chest” a few years ago, when I filmed a video with MostMuscular.com titled “Midwest Chest” that featured my chest training. These are principles I continue to use in my chest training today. When I was new to lifting, like many newcomers I trained my chest 2-3 times a week and […]
The post Hey Brett. The other day I heard someone refer to you as “Midwest Chest”. How did you get that nickname?

That is a great question that I seem to hear a lot these days. True, we are all trying to save money wherever possible with the current state of the economy. But when you say it’s cheaper to eat unhealthy foods, I couldn’t disagree with you more. Although it may seem as though it is […]

The post Hey Brett. I’m a 20 year old college student and a competitive bodybuilder. At my last show, I won my class and qualified for a National event. I’m planning to take the next semester of school off so that I can focus on my training for Nationals.

I live with my parents and they really don’t want me to take a break from school but I don’t want to give up on my dream. What do you think? appeared first on 1st Phorm.
