"Why do I Love Versa Gripps? It secures my grip perfectly and I don't need to spend time and energy to put them on the barbell, dumbbell, or machine. I've been using Versa Gripps for 10 years and these are the only grips I use!" - Hidetada Yamagishi
Athletic Background
I played rugby in my teens. I wanted to gain weight to enhance my performance. At the time, I only weighted around 130lbs but through weight training, I was able to gain almost 50lbs by the time I graduated from high schoo. After I graduated, I was looking for somethng new I could pour my energy into, and finally found my passion, bodybuilding. I have been bodybulding now for over 20 years!
Motivation
I am a very goal oriented person. I need that adrenaline rush of challenges and working towards a goal. I love to train but what motivates me to work harder every day to bring my phytsique to the next level is compeition and having certain goals to improve myself
Goals
My short term goal is to be top 6 in Mr. Olympia 2014.
My long term goal is to have my own gym and help people.
