It’s incredible how life works as you just never know what can happen when you go after your goals with great sense of urgency, sacrifice and true passion.
Thank you Big Ron for always being an inspiration to all of us bodybuilders as your ability to transcend our sport made me a much better champion and Man!!!”
In addition to that, Ronnie Coleman shared a post of his own, saying he had a great time with Heath.
