OK, so he hasn't won a MM show, yet. But Louisiana lifter Jose Ortiz carries a load of muscle thickness, classic shape and like most bodybuilders is constantly making changes in improving his natural physique. He says, "Since last year's MM Texas, I have been making adjustments in my diet. I plan to rotate my carbs year round and add grapefruit, the super fruit to my diet. Three days of low carbs and the fourth day high carbs, call it a cheat day. I did a bulk-up after the October show and got up to 194 lbs. My biceps peaked out at 18 3/4" after a pump." Jose says he plans to compete this season at MM Lone Star in Houston and MM Cajun in New Orleans.
