Erik Responded today" I am very appreciative to be a part of Weider. I grew up reading Flex magazine and used it to feed my motivation to train hard and become the best I could be. Now I am excited to give back and help motivate others to reach there goals. I am proud to be a part of the Weider team of athletes. All of the people at Weider are first class and I could not ask for a better opportunity. Thanks to everyone that helped me get to where I am today. To be a good bodybuilder you need to have a good support group and I have been blessed with great support. I would like to thank my wife Heather, kids Xavier, London, trainer Neil Hill, and Universal Nutrition for helping me become the bodybuilder I have become today. "
