Model of The Week : Mike B

Mike is an accomplished and ambitious model from Long Island. He began his modeling career at the urging of a friend. “A friend of mine suggested that I start modeling,” he discloses. “I thought it was a joke but sent in some photos anyway and everything just exploded from there.” Mike has quite a bit of modeling experience under his belt and has gotten several promotional gigs and numerous conventions.

“By far, though, my biggest modeling endeavor was being one of the finalists for the Armani Exchange Underwear Model Contest.” His enthusiasm does not end with modeling, however. “Right now, one of my main goals is to get my magazine, Young Muscle, out there. I feel that making a name for myself modeling has really set me in the right direction.”

Someone as successful as Mike has to maintain their looks and be disciplined enough to follow a strict training regimen. “I play basketball and softball with my friends when we get a chance. I’m always active whether in doing my sit-ups and pushups in my room, hitting the weights, or going for a jog. I try to mix it up and keep my body guessing.”

When Mike isn’t posing for the camera, he enjoys spending time with his friends. “We like to go to the clubs around here. I’d have to say Pacha is our favorite place. If you’re ever in New York City, check it out!” When asked if he had a message for his fans, Mike was ready with a joke. “I didn’t realize I had any fans, but thanks for the support!”
