I’m making good on something I said last year. I recently got back in touch with Ed Samaan, the teenage bodybuilder I met last May while on assignment for a feature about his state bodybuilding title. He’s put on nearly 60 pounds since I last saw him, and I’m going to check in with him periodically to document his journey as he hardens up, then cuts about 50 pounds as he preps for this year’s national competitions. This is from Day One of the project.
