Interview with this Month's Featured Model, BILL KESSINGER

How did you get into modeling?

JC of Musclehead Graphics contacted me after seeing me compete at the 2009 KY MUSCLE EXPO.

What are your goals in the profession? Do you see it as a full-time occupation or an avocation?

I realize that modeling is not easy, but it would be a dream come true if modeling becomes a full-time career for me.

If it's an avocation, what are your other career goals?

I am co-owner of a sports product company and I'm competing in Bodybuilding contests, but I'm SURE there is room for modeling in my life.

Looking as good as you do isn't easy. What are your training methods?

I workout four to six days a week for an hour and a half to two hours.

How about diet?

Low carbs and high protein most of the week with a couple of high carb days.

Do you plan to compete in bodybuilding or fitness shows or have you already?

I competed in the 2009 KY MUSCLE EXPO and the 2010 INDIANA STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS in Indianapolis, IN. I took 1st Place in the Men's Open Bantamweight Class. I'd like to compete in some shows this Fall, and I'm looking for a Sponser I can work with.

How do you kick back and relax?

I'm pretty much on the go, so working out is my stress relief, and I also enjoy it. I like swimming, laying out by the pool, and reading health and fitness magazines and books.

How about some favorites?
