Having a support system as a bodybuilder becomes extremely crucial in the long run. It is not easy to take in the frustration, anxiety, and all the ups and downs of the long journey of bodybuilding. Apart from guidance from professional coaches, these participants require motivation and determination which can be only provided by their support system and well-wishers. Nick Walker also is attributing such an important role to someone special in his life. Who could it be?
