Inside the Mind of Deserusan

Vanessa was very impressive and this is one of the few contests I can safely say the judging was spot on. The girl she took second to did look amazing and had just a tad bit more size. I’ve been discussing with Vanessa her approach for the Team U next September and how we’ll bring up her hamstrings/glutes, abdominal depth, and back thinckness specifically. Since she’s genetically gifted and very dedicated it won’t be an issue.

If you have ever helped anyone with their prep or the last touches with regards to color, glueing in the suits, etc you know how much goes on behind the scenes. This experience was a lot better than the NY Mets for me all around. The process of coloring, glazing, covering up tatoos, etc went a lot better this time which you can probably tell from the pictures too. Ever wonder wear Vanessa’s tatoos disappeared to?

What truly helped this experience was the fact we had so many friends around to break the tension. Matt and Melissa Cahill from Designer Supplements spend the day with us as did George (gfreidel) and my coworker Robi. I also got to talk to Chuck (njmuscle66) a bit too and hope he enjoys the SizeON. All in all, this made the experience much more enjoyable. A big thanks to all of you.

All in all, I’m very proud of Vanessa placing 2nd out of the 18 girls in her class. The shows in the tri-state area are among some of the hardest in the country so to do well isn’t an easy feat. I’m just truly amazed how far Vanessa has come in the past 15 months regarding our industry. It’s a testament to what dedication and having a great personality can reward you with.
