Team UGC went down to Bayridge Brooklyn for the grand opening of Natural Body health store for all your work out needs. Accompanied with me was my good friend and pro-body builder/Fitness model Grace Rivera (www.GraceRivera.com) who came down and enjoyed the festivities. I was introduced by Grace to pro-body builder Victor Martinez who has won The Arnolds a weight lifting competition and is also featured in numerous fitness magazines.
Victor has over come a lot of hardship as well as victory. Back in 2009 Victors sister Eridania Rodriquez who went to work in an office building near the World Trade Center where she was found dead in a ventilation shaft taped and bound. Our condolences go out to Victor and his family as this is never easy no matter how long ago it was.
I had the pleasure of talking with Victor for a few as the fans started to pour in to take pics and talk with him as well. I told him about the Underground clown company and presented him with a Future Legend shirt that he wanted to take a picture with the shirt. Real nice genuine guy.
