Name: Jonathan Later Date of birth: 01/22/1982 City: The Hague, The Netherlands Profession: About Jonathan Later: I was born in The Hague (the Netherlands) on the 2nd of January 1982. I used to do different kind of sports like ice-hockey, jujitsu, kickboxing and soccer. At the age of ten I started to watch Schwarzenegger movies, at that time I already knew I wanted to be like that one day. The first time I got in contact with lifting weights was when we went to the gym with school. I weighed 149 lbs at that time. When I first started training I liked to train legs because I wanted stronger legs for soccer.

Because of the progression I made I decided to get a membership at that gym. I started to work out with a good friend of mine. We just did all of the machines. I mostly did the chestpress machine, the progress was good and I really felt the pump. The friend who I was training with quit after two months. I kept going. After 6 moths of training I gained 4.5 lbs. That's when I got introduced to another gym.

In the new gym there was an instructor who said that I had to train with free weights, and that I had to train with a split training schedule. I also started taking weight gainers. Every month 1 gained 2.2 lbs to 4.4lbs. I also bought a book from Arnold Schwarzenegger. In his book he was talking about all the things he was eating to get bigger, so I started to eat as much as possible. I ate a lot of bread with tuna and mayonnaise. After a wile I ate 26 slices of bread a day. Than I trained and also had dinner after my training and oatmeal with protein before sleeping. After 3.5 years of training my weight went up from 149 lbs to 229 lbs . I also gained fat, my body fat went up from 10 to 17.5 November of 2003 I met Rob Ammersdorfer at the Dorian Yates Grandprix in the Netherlands. With two friends of mine I went to his gym and he made a diet for all of us. Four months after starting his diet my body fat went down to 8 or 9. Because I wanted to build more mass I started to eat more carbs again. November of 2004 I started with my diet for the Eemsmondcup 27 March 2005.

From the beginning Rob told me that I would make the top 3. His prediction was right and I won the Eemsmondcup, my own weight class (-200 kg) and the overall title (winner all weight classes). My last competition was the Dutch Nationals (IFBB). I placed 3rd in the heavy weight class. Check out my website www.jonathanlater.com to see what I am up to. Contact Jonathan Later
