Ben Booker Age: 29 Height: 5'11'' Weight: 287 pounds
Ben’s career in the gym began with a broken back that he injured while playing football his senior year in high school. The two months of bed rest that followed left him with very little muscle, but, surprisingly, there was an upside. “The bench press was actually the first exercise I could do because I could only lie on my back,” he says. “Ever since that day, lifting has been a passion of mine.”
Early this year he won the BodySpace Spokesmodel search on Bodybuilding.com and is a spokesman for Applied Nutriceuticals. He’s also the father of two children, with a third on the way. Training, he says, is a way for him to show his children that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to.
Alex was born in Brazil, and traveled throughout South America during his youth. At 17, while living in Santiago, Chile, he got his first taste of Muscle & Fitness from a six-month-old Spanish edition with Stan McQuay on the cover. “Muscle & Fitness was the only magazine sold, so it was the only source of my fitness information,” he says. “Now the chance to be on the cover is cool since this is where I got started.”
As a Denver-based personal trainer with plans to become an IFBB bodybuilder, Alex hopes he can do for others what McQuay did for him. “It would be an honor to be a model who inspires others to follow their fitness goals.”
