PHILIPSBURG--St. Maarten Pro Bodybuilder, Alvin Andre, is on his way to Chicago this afternoon. “My flight is at 3:30pm. There is one stop in Atlanta. I should arrive in Chicago by 11:00pm,” said Andre.
He will compete in the IFBB Wings of Strength Chicago Pro Show June 29 to July 1.
Last night he was at the gym.
“I stayed a little longer then usually to get last minute prep for the show,” said Andre.
The 40-year old, Andre, has been working hard. He has been coached by Antonio Gosilio and assisted by Dimar Labega. Dimar is St. Maarten Fittest on the Rock Champion.
Andre can spend upwards of 90 minutes to two hours in the gym every day, “according to the body part being trained.”
Then there is the mater of nutrition. It takes a lot of food to maintain the 5-foot-11 260 pounds of muscle.
“My wife Juliana Andre' has supported me through this,” said Andre. He continued,
“We just celebrated 5 years married on the 23rd of June.”
Helping sponsor the trip and training are Air St. Maarten and Incredible Nutrition & More.
Andre earned his Bodybuilding Pro Card in 2011 at the Central American and Caribbean Championship in El Salvador.
