Kris has followed the sport of Bodybuilding for the past 16 years and has been actively involved within the industry for the past 8 years. In 1997 he successfully completed a 3 year full time course gaining his International Health and Sports Therapy qualifications. These qualifications include: Weight training and Exercise Instructor examiner, Diet and Nutrition adviser, Sport and Injury Rehabilitation, Swedish, Deep tissue, Sports and Aromatherapy Massage. Kris started a personal training business working within several fitness centers in his home country of Wales, UK. A year later he had the opportunity to work as a Personal Trainer and Massage therapist on-board 5 star cruise liners traveling the Caribbean, Bahamas, Mexico and the east coast of the USA. In the year 2000 Kris moved to Sydney Australia where he built a successful mobile personal training business for two years. During this time Kris had started to write and shoot pictures for a “hard core” British publication called Muscle News on a regular basis covering athlete profiles/interviews and contest coverage. Two years later he opened a fitness center called Future Physique. There he personal trained hundreds of clients specializing in 12 week transformation. Several clients results were so impressive that they won the world recognized “Body for Life Challenge”. Also during this time Kris was writing and shooting for the BEEF magazine (UK), Body Fitness (Europe and Australasia), Muscle & Fitness and FLEX (Australia). In regards to bodybuilding competition, Kris was a bodybuilding judge for three years and competed in four natural bodybuilding shows finishing second in all and unbelievably missing first place by one point in all also. In 2005 Kris moved to the Mecca of bodybuilding – Venice Beach in California. Here Kris secured a writers and photographers contract with the Weider International. Just recently, Kris launched his own publication, Kaged Muscle. We met Kris at the 2006 FAME Worlds Bodybuilding and Fitness Championships in Toronto, where we photographed him on the streets of Toronto. Kris competed at a weight of 184 lbs., and he nearly won the show, winding up in the runner-up position. We did a follow-up photoshoot with Kris later that year in, where else, Venice Beach, his new home.
