But Mr. Khammountry’s fierce dedication to bodybuilding has helped him in more ways than one. He attributes the strength of will gained through the sport as giving him the power to “say no.” “During my early life, [I] could … move in the pathway of going into underground gangs and so forth,” Mr. Khammountry stated. “Or [I] should pass into the course of fitness and stayed the course. “It [bodybuilding] stored me because … it made me absolutely unbiased, so I wasn’t motivated by everyone to fall into that course. I made my own desire to shrink back from that kind of have an effect on. “If I went the opposite path I could be in jail, 100 in step with a cent.”

Having secured the range-one slot within the NSW State Arnold Qualifier within the guys’ physique division, Mr. Khammountry has his points of interest set on winning a National title.
