Biography

Chase’s Sporting Beginnings

As a passionate and formidable American football player throughout his high school days, Chase’s passion for fitness dates back to his early teens. After leaving high school, he began working at a gym in his local area. This is when he was first introduced to weight training.

From then on, Chase aimed to build a muscular and shredded physique. Because of this, he began lifting weights regularly. Just months later, he was able to build significant muscle mass.By the time he reached 17, Chase was able to build an impressive physique through his hard work. However, he didn’t want to stop there.

It was at this point, Chase began to become more involved within fitness modeling. At the same time, he continued to maintain his intensive training routine day in and day out. This early success within his modeling career, gave chase even more motivation to improve his physique – aiming to look his best for more upcoming photo-shoots.

However, after making considerable progress in the weights room, Chase wanted to go a step further. This is when he set his sights on becoming a men’s physique competitor – providing him an opportunity to showcase his great physique on stage. Here’s Chase recalling the moment he realized that reaching the bodybuilding stage was his next step in life:

“I wanted something to stay competitive with after high school sports and saw it as the perfect challenge for my body and mind”.

Chase then continued an impressive streak of results heading into his next competitions, finishing 2nd in the 2013 NPC Europa Super Show and 2014 Cajun Showdown. However, this wasn’t enough for Chase. Second place wasn’t an option for him, as he set his sights on obtaining his Pro Card.

At the NPC National Championships in 2014, Chase finished in 1st place. As a result, he was awarded IFBB Pro status. Because of this, Chase was fully aware that it takes hard work and commitment to be success on the bodybuilding stage.

Training

Chase’s training in the gym involves a mixture of heavy lifts with low reps, and lighter weights with higher reps. When performing compound movements such as squats and deadlifts, Chase prefers to lift heavy. However, he switches to lighter weights when performing isolation exercises such as preacher curls and dumbbell lateral raises.

Here’s Chase talking about his training methods:

“I always lift heavy whether it’s off-season or pre-contest. I also always mix up both heavy weight low reps and lighter weight with more squeezing for detail. You have to implement both techniques to target the fast twitch and slow twitch muscle fibers. That’s how I get the most out of my training”.

Listed below is his training split, along with his favorite exercises for each muscle group:
