Derek McGuire has become a close family friend over the last seven years. He was temporarily my trainer and has been my wife’s trainer for the better part of seven years. When I first met him, he was an affable, good looking and intelligent young man dedicated to his craft. Over the ensuing years, I have gotten to know Derek and am amazed. I have been going to the gym for 35 years, and I have never seen anyone, including professional bodybuilders, be able to transform his or her body like Derek. He has done it day in and day out for seven years. He has won a host of bodybuilding competitions. Here is a short list:
- Natural Pro Card at INBF Southwestern Natural Championships
- 2011 Optimum Classic in Shreveport, LA, 1st Novice, Heavyweight and Overall
- 2012 DFAC Jersey Naturals 1st Light Heavyweight
- 2012 INBF Hercules 1st Light Heavyweight, won Pro Card
- 2013 WNBF Pro Americans 5th in Heavyweights
- 2015 Mid Atlantic Naturals 1st Light Heavyweights and overall champion
- 2015 Team Universe 6th Light Heavyweight
This list continues to grow as Derek challenges himself.
