Joining
us today is National Level MP Competitor Brian Harris. Congrats on a great showing at the Southern States! What made you decide to compete in the Men’s Physique Division?
Well after the Army I needed another challenge so I decided to lift weights and was shooting to enter a Bodybuilding show, but I didn’t feel comfortable at 210 so I decided to pursue men’s physique
Can you tell us a little about the Competition in which you just competed?
Well I just got done doing Southern States and placed 4th in my place! The class was deep, it had 32 middle class guys competing. I qualified for Nationals.
How did you feel after pre-judging?
I felt great after pre- judging, which happens to be the easy part of men’s physique lol. 1st call out was amazing
How did you feel about the final results of the show? The results were awesome. My friend and I both placed in the top 5 and cant wait to rock the stage again
What are your thoughts on the Men's Physique Division and what it may be able to do for your career?
Well MP has grown so much within the last 2 yrs that it has potential to reach so many outlets, being African American I certainly want to reach that demographic
